Announcements for May 22

Parish Picnic This Sunday
The annual spring parish picnic is this Sunday, May 22. Gather on the south lawn following the 10:00 AM service. Hotdogs and hamburgers will be provided. Everyone is invited to come celebrate spring and our parish community! Bring a side or dessert if you wish. We will also plant the parish food garden.

Seeking Information on Graduates
Are you, or someone in your family, graduating this spring? As we do each year, we would like to celebrate graduates (at all levels). Please call or email the parish office with the information. You may also drop a note in the offering plate on Sunday. Please keep the announcements as brief as possible, but feel free to include information on majors, special honors and future plans, if known. The deadline for submitting information is June 1.

Photo Op – Get Your Photo Taken for St. John’s Photo Board
Vestry member Nichole Dailor is spearheading an effort to create a bulletin board for the undercroft with current photos of St. John’s parishioners. She’ll be available to take family or individual photos at the parish picnic. You may also supply your own photos if you wish, or there will be additional photo opportunities throughout the year.

Last Day of Sunday School
This Sunday, May 22, is the final day of Sunday School for this year. During the 10:00 AM service, we will celebrate the children and teachers who are a part of our Sunday School program.
