I would like to thank everyone who supported the Jewelry Youth Group Fund Raiser and helped make it a success. In addition to a $400.00 profit, the church earned $525.00 in FREE jewelry which will be raffled off at future church events. Also, a special thank you to Carol Lagowski and Maryanne Stout for their contributions.

With thanks,
Jill Hipko

Special thanks to…
Rebecca, Samantha, Jessica & Linda Jones and Kaitlyn & Krystal Ramsen for pitching in and getting out two large mailings!

Vacation Bible School

Our Thanks to:

Our Teaching Staff and their assistants:
Pre-K – Diane Bradford and Kaitlyn Ramsen
Kindergarten – Linda Jones and Rebecca Jones
Primary – Joanne Perry and Jaclyn Perry
Pre-Teen – Pastor Rich and Garret Conger

Our Craft Leader – Elana Kircher – and her staff: Sandy Kapler, Allyson Kircher, Samantha Jones and Mary Catherine Lynn – again, this year’s crafts are amazing and the children really enjoy making them.

Our Kitchen Ladies: Shirley Hoppes, Grace Novello, Flo Torok and Dr. Grace Kothari – they prepared snacks and juice each day and kept the kitchen in tip-top shape all week.

Our Administrative Leaders – Carol Lagowski, Rebecca Migliore and Greg Jones – for the administrative help and constant support of the program.

Special thanks to the many friends and families of the program for their generous donations.

Each morning during Chapel Time, we collected an offering. This year our collection amounted to $260 to be shared between World Vision and Interfaith Network of Care.

The parents, grandparents and families for sharing your beautiful children with us and for turning out for our closing program.

This was our eleventh year of V.B.S. with Pastor Rich as our guide. I could not do this without his support or the generous giving of time and talent by all those listed above. Be sure to say “thanks” to them for sharing their love of God with the children. Although it may look like a lot of work, it really winds up being a lot of fun.

We encourage all members of our congregation – young or young at heart - to join in on the fun with us next summer. We already know the theme of next year’s program and it is sure to be a winner. Ask me about it!

Until then, enjoy the rest of your summer and see you in Sunday School!
