WOMEN’S STUDY GROUP – Tuesdays at 7pm
Members of this Study Group have elected to continue to meet throughout the summer months, not necessarily using study material at this time. Rather, it will be more a time of sharing and discussion. All are welcome.
The meeting will be in The Palmer Room, #22
LANDSCAPING UPDATE
The planting went perfectly, the weather cooperated and the results look beautiful. Thank you to all who came to help and particular thanks to Eric Neiswender who planned every detail meticulously.
Now plans are underway for the next phase and it is important that decisions about the plants are made with the big picture in mind. Please talk with Chris Laswell (Sr. Warden) or Eric Neiswender (Beautification Squad Leader) before carrying out any pruning or planting at church. Also, if you are willing to help with keeping the new plants properly watered this summer, please contact Eric Neiswender.

EPISCOPAL RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT
All Saints received a letter of thanks from ERD, dated June 7. This was in response to the Vestry’s recent gift of $1000.00 to the Haiti Earthquake Response.
In partnership with the Haiti Diocese ERD has assisted more than 60,000 people with food, water, shelter, health care, sanitation and other relief. They are collaborating with the diocese to develop a plan for Haiti’s long-term recovery which will include increased focus on job creation and cash-for-work programs.
