The Spire for Thursday, May 26th, 2022
Spring has sprung; along with a taste of summer! What plans do you have for the long and loving Memorial Day weekend? Biking? Shopping? Traveling? At home catching up on the duties of our lives! Be safe, be happy!
This Sunday 5/29, Tracy Koss had planned and prepared to do our service; until she tested positive on Tuesday! (It is a sign of our times we all know what that means without further explanation!) Her service was ready to go! So.. in the spirit of community and “Let’s Do It!” Kelly Clark will be leading the service ably assisted by Patrick Weiler and Rolly and Jan!!! Leon will be at the piano and a loving service will be presented for all! Join them for this holiday service made a little more special by you being there! Prayers for Tracy’s recovery. The report is she is fatigued a lot, but other symptoms relatively mild! That’s a good thing! Prayers!
On June 5th, Rev Susan Solomon from Holland Patent will be leading our communion service. Susan’s retirement gave rise to the Team approach used to provide interim service for HP which became the Team providing those services for three churches! Please join Susan for her Pentecost Celebration!
The light tone of The Spire is a little more difficult this week as we humans struggle with the impact of the Texas School Shooting. The incomprehensible has happened AGAIN! Your prayers for the families and communities will be welcomed. Your action to help create change is welcomed too!
The 200th Anniversary Celebration: PLEASE NOTE: Volunteers are needed for most activities: please check out the sign up CLIPBOARDS on the piano! Without your help, we cannot make this celebration reach its potential! Please consider volunteering! AND If you love to sing, we would love to have you join the 200th’s ecumenical choir for the July 17, 2022 church service at 10:00am. For more information, please e-mail Kristine (Mallette) Neale at KIKI.Neale97@gmail.com Or call her: 704-607-5980. “Everyone is welcome”
Tomorrow May 27th a Memorial Service for John Mumford will be held at FPC at 11AM. The service will be followed by an Old Car parade destined for the Old Glendale Cemetery where John will be celebrated with Full Military Honors!
Sarah is settling in wonderfully as she embraces our processes, forms, quirks and her role as the center of our universe. She has limited time in the office so when possible, please recognize that and keep the business you have for FPC clear and concise! And be patient!
We had a wonderful Stone Soup last week serving 122 dinners to friends and family. It seems a worthy and appreciated occasion. Yet: to continue successfully we need your help. The ranks were thin last week and those who worked performed yeoman’s duties lasting much of the day! For this mission continue: please consider volunteering for this community endeavor and sign up early so the central team knows who will be there and when!: it is a worthy endeavor! Thank you!
My last Spire will be next weeks! I will miss this little epistle! It is our hope that others will join together to keep the weekly news and notes coming! Please remember and understand: Everyday is a Gift!
Love; Steve
