Church Bulletin Board

                                       Our church will sponsor a food booth at Jefferson Hills Community Day
   next Saturday, August 8. Stop by to say hello and share in some good food.

                                       Our accompanist, Ralph, will be leaving us. A farewell reception will be held
                                       in his honor on Sunday, August 16 directly following Worship. Ralph's last
                                       Sunday with us will be August 23. Our Congregation extends a good luck
                                       wish to him in his future endeavors.

                                       In an effort to increase income and promote recycling, our church is participating
                                       in the Abitibi paper recycling project. You may place newspapers, magazines,
                                       office and school papers, shopping catalogues or unwanted mail in the green and
                                       yellow receptacle. (no cardboard boxes). Thank you for your support.

                                       The 2009 Flower Calendar is posted on the bulletin board in the downstairs
                                       hallway. Please sign up if you have interest in altar flowers by noting on the
                                       calendar how you would like the bulletin announcement to read. If you have
                                       a special request, such as color or flower preference, please note that as well
                                       and we will do our best to convey that to the florist. The cost of flowers for
                                       2009 remains $15. Please call Angel Minda at 412-384-4667 if you have
                                       any questions.

                                       Bricks for the Memorial Garden are back ordered. Melanie Colosimo is
                                       coordinating this project. Any questions may be directed to her.

The churches in our area have joined together and implemented the West Jefferson

Hills Ministerium. Our 1st event was a back-to-school "Service of Blessing" at
the high school. We look forward to future ecumenical events.

A reminder to request paper bags instead of plastic to assist the Cloverleaf

Food Bank with their need. The Food Bank serves 135 families totaling 316
individuals and generally provides at least 2 bags per family. You may place

your bags and food in the baskets in the Narthex.
