August Events

These items are listed on our online calendar, but they’re worth repeating!

• Wednesdays, August 3 and August 17—The church library will be open from 1:00-3:00 pm. However, Carol will not be serving refreshments; last month she had to eat most of them herself. (She says she gained several pounds and it’s all our fault.) Come visit her anyway!
• Wednesday, August 10, at noon—The summer luncheon hosted by PW. All men of the church are invited, too. This is the last day to donate school supplies for the children in the Dysart School District.
• Thursday, August 11, 7:00 pm—The Ben Hur preview at Arrowhead Fountains 18 (Harkins) Theater. See Beth in the church office for tickets. They are free for veterans and $9.00 each for the rest of us. 
• Sunday, August 14, 3:00 pm—We are hosting the last of this summer’s One in Spirit/One in Song ecumenical hymn-sings in our chapel. Bill Gleason and Kelsey McKee will lead us in song, with homemade cookies to follow in Swain Hall. 
• Thursday, August 25, 2:00 pm—The annual 90+ tea. If you are 90 or older, you will be receiving a personal invitation. If you are not yet 90 but would like to help out by driving someone, working in the kitchen, or hosting one of the tables, please call the church office. 
• Special music—The worship service on Sunday, August 7, will see the return of tenor Dan Post, always a summer favorite, and August 14 will feature a piano duet by Kelsey McKee and Vonda Hagen. 

And don’t forget, our last summer cookout will be on Labor Day, Monday, September 5, at noon!
