COMMUNITY GARDEN PROJECT. Work continues at the Community Garden sponsored by Old First Presbyterian Church. Work sessions are held Saturday morning and Wednesday evenings. Lettuces and snap peas are being harvested, and many other veggies are growing. Everyone is welcome to help plant, water, weed, and harvest on any Saturday or Wednesday. If you would like to go as part of a “group”, on the third Saturday of each month, we will carpool to the garden to work in the morning. Meet in the church parking lot at 9:45 a.m., June 20 and we’ll head to the garden as a group. You will probably bring home some fresh, organic veggies at the end of the day.

Tell or e-mail friends about VBS and put flyers in places you shop. We have 23 registrations. Keep them coming!

 

PASTOR NOMINATING COMMITTEE (PNC) continues to review Pastor Information Forms (PIF’s), resumes. We have received 104 PIF’s, and reduced that to 27 of interest. Of the 104, 87 came via Church Leadership Connection – the balance were sent directly to the committee. After reducing the 27 to a manageable number, we will start over with those that arrived since the 104. Our aim is to pare numbers, in order to start phone interviews in late June. We have some fine applicants and are confident things are progressing well.
