Community Pantry – Summer Updates

By

The end of the school year is upon us, so to prevent food from going unused on pantry shelves, we will not be accepting items for the Grace Jordan pantry from May-July. Food/toiletry donations will resume in August, so the pantry can be fully stocked and ready for the fall. We’ll continue to welcome financial contributions so we can get a jump start with pantry staples at the start of the new school year.

Thanks to the generosity of the Southminster congregation, 19 carts full of donated goods were delivered to Grace Jordan this school year, which is approximately 99% of all donations the pantry received. Because of you, families in need have had the food and supplies they’ve needed to survive. Thanks be to God for this display of hospitality and welcome.

Carpenter’s Gift

By

Occasionally, we have a need for handy-hands to assist with home repair projects for members and friends of Southminster who have specific needs. Do you like to paint? Replace carpet? Make minor electrical repairs? Use your pickup truck to take a load to the dump? Contact TJ to be added to a list for an unofficial “Carpenter’s Gift ” group.

Though these volunteers will be called upon rather rarely, we are likely to have an immediate need in May.

SAGES – Lunch & Concert

By

The final SAGES gathering of the spring will be on May 18, and is sure to be enjoyable for all. Lunch will be served at 11:30am, with the Grace Jordan Elementary School choir presenting a concert after lunch. In addition to the congregation, parents/guardians of students will also attend the concert. Please RSVP to Roger Brown or Kathryn Nicholas so they can ensure there’s enough food for all.

Holy Humor Worship

By

Are you ready for Saturday Night Alive? Borrowing from an ancient practice of the Christian tradition, our Sabbath Service (Saturday April 15 at 5:00pm) will take the form of “Holy Humor.”

Plan to come dressed in your brightest colors and/or a silly costume. You’re encouraged to bring a joke or two in case you’re asked to make the congregation laugh.

Our Saturday Night Alive worship service will include upbeat music, lots of laughter, and joyful community—all in celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
