MINISTRY NEWS

Serving the Community - Some of our Westminster family helped serve breakfast for the community at Basic United Methodist Church this on Saturday, June 1st. Thank you to all who donated, prepped food, served and helped clean up. A special thanks to Lindsey Coiner who helped organize. It was a great experience for some our youngest members.

June 16 is Father’s Day where we will blend our stories/quotes from how our fathers have impacted our faith into the service. If you would like to share in one of the services next week or have a story to share please contact Pastor April.

Disaster Relief Kits - Troop 73 Life Scout Nick Gimbert is working with UMCOR and the Fishersville United Methodist Church on his Eagle project to collect materials and funds to be used in putting together disaster relief hygiene kits. It is his hope to be able to put together at least fifty kits by July 15. Would you consider donating a hygiene kit? He has placed a collection box in the colonnade that will be there until the end of June. Thank you! A hygiene kit consists of: 1 hand towel (not kitchen or microfiber), 1 washcloth, 1 comb, 1 metal nail file or clippers, 1 bar soap (3oz or larger), 6 adhesive bandages, $1.00 for purchase of toothpaste. More details are in a flyer on the collection box.

Personnel is actively searching for new Communications Assistant. A job description and application are available at Indeed.com. Any questions regarding this position please contact Suzanne Scott or Sue Krzastek.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the two presentations for Sanctuary Renovation. Details of the current plans are available in the entrance to the colonnade and soon a video will be on continuous view so that all may watch as often as desired. Another presentation by the Ad Hoc Sanctuary committee is scheduled for Sunday, June 16 at 10 am in the Chapel. We invite all to attend and ask questions and offer comments. The Ad Hoc committee is also available to answer questions or receive your comments at any time; Sue Krzastek, Steve Yancey, Tom Elliott, Tom Harris, Alice Coppic, Blair Hanger, Ed Glover, Ryan Krzastek and Kathy Baker. Thank you, Kathy Baker, Elder on Session and Member of Ad Hoc Sanctuary Committee.

We have new and growing families throughout our church. Having a great nursery is key to our growth. We currently have half of the volunteers needed to support our Nursery Ministry. Contact Sara Yoder at nurserywestminster@gmail.com or (518)369-2581 if you want to help our most adorable and fun ministry.

Have a favorite hymn or song? A song service is planned for Sunday, June 16 with the need of your favorite songs at the 9:00 service and hymns at the 11:15 service. These songs will also be used throughout the summer if all cannot be incorporated on June 16. Please submit your favorite hymns and/or contemporary Christian songs and designate which service, 9:00 or 11:15, to Bettie Tindall at btindall@ntelos.net. Thanks!

Summer Travel Packs -Pick up your pack now in the colonnade. You'll find numerous ideas and game sheets for travel games inside, plus a fun way to keep your church family back home updated on your trip. This is for ALL ages, and families of all sizes...because we are all member of the family of God.

This summer during the "Fruit of the Spirit" worship series, the communion table will display a bowl of fruit on the first Sunday of each month (July 7, and August 4). If you have fruit you would like to donate from your gardens for these worship services, please contact Sara Jordan at smiles2sara@hotmail.com. The fruit will be used at both worship services and displayed in a hand carved wooden bowl made by Bill Anderson. Fruit would need to be donated on or before the 9:00 service the first Sunday of the month. After both services, Kay Adamson will donate the fruit to the Ruth's WARM House.

Summer Flowers for worship services. To enhance the worship spaces over the summer months, the worship ministry invites you to bring flowers from your garden for the chapel and sanctuary communion tables. If you would like to bring a flower on a Sunday from June-August, sign up with Sara Jordan, 540-292-4823. Flowers would need to be brought prior to the 9:00 service. Thank you.

More MINISTRY NEWS... The Camp Hanover Day Camp that we are hosting here is right around

the corner...June 17-21. As a host church, we need to fill

several roles in order to provide this excellent camp experience for our

church and community children.

We still need: -Host homes for the 2 counselors-

You can host all 3 for the week (Sun-Thurs nights) or house 1 or 2 counselors for a shorter stay. Host

homes are responsible for breakfast in the morning. We have ONE home set, but need housing for 2 more

counselors

-Daily Volunteers - We provide daily volunteers at here at the church to help the counselors as needed and provide a liaison to the church. Camp meets 9-3 Monday through Friday. Volunteer for as many days as you like. We particularly

need help on Thursday (June 20).

If you can help in any of these ways, please contact John Tindall.

Thank You! Dear Westminster members. Our family can not begin to put into words how grateful we are for all of the prayers, love and support you shared with us while our son Hampton was in the NICU. We feel so fortunate to have the connection and fellow-ship of Westminster and feel that we have truly found our church home. Hampton loves his prayer quilt to have tummy time and feel all the love from the church. We are also so incredibility grateful for the gift bag and gift card that helped us cover the cost of the gas to get back and forth from the hospital and home. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts! Evan, Rebecca and Hampton Steele

Landscaping with Love (Finance Ministry's 2019 Mission with Stuarts Draft FFA) The finance ministry

communicates with the Cancer center at August Health to find families in need of landscaping. Often time they

do not have the energy to do chores around the house. On Saturday, June 1, we weeded flower beds, cleared poison ivy, and mulched. We also cleared a

space near their pool where they want to put down sod. We hauled some top soil to fill in holes that a dog had dug. After we finished working, we grilled lunch there and a few of us jumped in his pool. It was a beautiful day for it. Many thanks to the Rider family for serving.
