It's Finally Here
Dear Saints,
Today we had our first Friday getting to operate from the new Woodstock Pantry. It felt surreal walking into it for the first time and experiencing the culmination of so many dreams, prayers, gifts and acts of love and service.
On Sunday, August 25 after the 10:15am service, we are going to bless the Pantry and celebrate together as a parish. Then on September 11 at 10:00am, we are going to have a Grand Opening celebration with special guest, Bishop Akiyama. This will be open to the wider community. Please come if you can and share with anyone who might be interested.
Please also save the date for the Backpack Blessing for all students, educators and support staff in our services (Aug 25).
Lastly, a huge thanks to our Kid's Camp leaders and all of the children and families who participated. Our kids had an incredible week learning about zoo animals, science, doing crafts, singing songs and learning animal themed stories of the Bible. And of course, the baby goats were a hit (pictures below).
Happy August!
Andria+
Rev. Andria will be away August 6 returning August 16. Please contact [email protected] for anything in the meantime or Rev. Constance for Pastoral Care.
