Upcoming Events:

THE LIGONIER FOOD PANTRY . . .
Has asked the people of St. James to collect
bottles of salad dressing for distribution in July. There is a box
in the side church for your donations. Please try to have your donations
to the church by Sunday, July 12.
-
MARK YOUR CALENDAR . . .
For our annual Outdoor Worship service,
being planned for Sunday, July 26, the Sunday nearest St. James'
Day. The 10:00 am service that date will be held in the churchyard,
weather permitting. There will be an indoor covered-dish "picnic"
in the fellowship hall after the service.
- OFF TO SEQUANOTA . . .
Please keep in your prayers this week the 7 St. James youth who are
attending Camp Sequanota today through Friday: Leah B., Lily E.,
Paige O., Ashley S., Alexis W., Geoffrey W. and Terry W. If you'd like
to send a note to any of the campers, address it to: Camper's name,
Camp Sequanota, PO Box 245, Jennerstown, PA, 15547. Our congregation
is providing one-half the cost of the week at camp for each of these
young people. Any donations to the St. James camp scholarship fund would
be appreciated. Please be sure that your gift is clearly marked for
the Campership Fund. Thank you!
-
WOMEN OF THE CHURCH . . .
You are invited to attend the monthly Dorcas Class on Tuesday,
July 7th at 1:30 pm in St. James' fellowship hall. Join us for
an hour of fellowship, Bible study and a delicious dessert.
-
A TRIP TO MARS, ANYONE . . . ?
On Tuesday morning, July 14, a groundbreaking ceremony will
be held for the new Assisted Living Alzheimer's Residence at St. John
Specialty Care, our Lutheran home in Mars, Pennsylvania. Bishops of
the 3 supporting synods will take part. Since a number of our St.
James members have contributed to this project through the Abundant
Life capital campaign during the past few years, it might be nice
to participate. Pastor Paul is offering to make the trip and take
along anyone who might be interested in attending. We would leave
from St. James at 8:30 am. Let Pastor know by this Tuesday, July 7
if you'd like to go, so that we can RSVP and make plans.
-
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL PLANNING . . .
Our 2009 Summer Vacation Bible School will be held in the evening,
Tuesday July 21, Wednesday July 22 and Thursday July 23! If
you are available to help during these dates, please contact K. Poerschke.
