Hello faith family! See the Carpenter’s Helper newsletter for the week of May 17, 2020. In it you will find an update from our Bishop on reopening church buildings, as well as an interesting article on Julian of Norwich (for whom I believe the Julian porch was named?) who lived through the Black Plague. This content was suggested to me by Kristin. Thank you so much Kristin! Please let me know if you have suggestions for what should be in our newsletter by writing to StThomassOffice@googlegroups.com.
I need your help. In two weeks, the Carpenter’s Helper newsletter will feature some of our parishioners academic achievements. I’d also like to add a section featuring all of the educators as they certainly have had a year like no other, and we should celebrate their service. Many have already sent in names and a few pictures of graduates. Please continue to send them in, and also help me collect a list of educators by writing to StThomassOffice@googlegroups.com.
This Sunday will be LIVE from St Thomas’s. If you missed Wednesday’s worship service, you are in for a treat when you see the major camera upgrade! All of your feedback helps as we continue to improve online worship.
Right after the service, Novel Theology will be meeting via Zoom at 10:15 a.m. Write to StThomassOffice@googlegroups.com if you’d like the link. The book this month is Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline. Reading this book is not a requirement to participate in the discussion, but it is a great read and available for download!
Monday night at 6 p.m., we will have the second Ladies’ Night IN, via Zoom. Ladies, write to StThomassOffice@googlegroups.com if you need the link. Last month was a hoot! It was so wonderful to see faces and share laughs. I can’t wait for Monday!
If there are any other groups who would like to meet virtually, know that I’m here to help. Please send in those graduate and educator names and pics, and I’ll see you Sunday on YouTube!
To see all events or news, visit our website, check FaceBook, or check out the posted events on the board next to the name tag station. Recent Newsletters, Sermons, or Announcements are also available.
