during August are at Saint James’ Watkins Glen.
Daily Office of Morning Prayer: Monday through Thursday through Friday @ 9 am
Holy Eucharist: Tuesday (Saint
Bartholomew) & Wednesday @ 9 am with Morning Prayer
MOBILE FOOD TRUCK is at the Cayuta Town Barn on
Tuesday, 10-11.30 am. Volunteers welcome
to help distribute the food. just look for Father Michael or Nancy Brand of
Schuyler Outreach Food Pantry.
FREE SUPPERS. The
WG United Methodist Church suspended/cancelled their free monthly suppers for
the public many weeks ago. I had hoped
that there would be enough interest from EPSC to continue this community
outreach – but it does not appear to be so. Not enough persons have come forward to coordinate its continuance. L – Father
Michael
THRIFT SHOP. The
Thrift Shop at Saint James’ WG needs a few additional volunteers, one day a
month on either Thursdays or Saturdays. You can contact Alice Garey, 272.6396, or leave a message at the Church
Office that you are interested. All
sorts of persons come to the shop: bargain hunters, young parents, fixed-income
seniors, even tourists sometimes!
EPSC LAWN SALE IN SEPTEMBER. Save those valuables for the annual EPSC lawn sale September 4th on the church lot adjacent to Saint
James’ Watkins Glen. You run your own
table, sell your own things, and make whatever donation to EPSC that you want
with your proceeds. What could be easier? Decatur Street on a September Saturday is a
high traffic route and there are plenty of customers. September 4th kicks off the Labor
Day weekend – a great time to get rid of stuff you don’t need!
BISHOP SINGH COMES SEPTEMBER 26TH. The annual visitation of our Bishop will be
at Saint James’ WG, September 26th, at 10 am. This is a time for baptisms, reception as an
Episcopalian from another denomination, individual renewal of baptismal
promises, or confirmation after baptism. Persons interested should speak with Father Michael asap. [Note: Bishop
Singh will be back October 3rd for the 200th celebration
at Saint John’s Catharine. That service
will be at 5 pm, Sunday afternoon.]
