We welcome guests and newcomers to Resurrection. We hope you will join us, not only for this worship service, but also for the fellowship of coffee hour downstairs afterwards. Thank you to the Bennett family and Eileen Doherty for providing coffee hour this morning.
We welcome as our guest celebrant this morning The Rev’d William Loring. Fr. Loring comes from Danbury, CT with his wife, Diane, and has been with us many times in the past. Thank you, Fr. Loring, for serving our parish this morning.
Blood supplies are critically low in the Hudson Valley during the summer months. Our next drive isn't until October but you can donate at the local IBM donor room and still credit Resurrection with the donation by just giving them our group number 62079. Why not write it on a slip of paper and keep it with your donor card?
Liz Pavelka has given us an update on the family we are helping – it is included on an insert with this bulletin. Especially make note that Jennifer’s (the mom) birthday is coming soon.
There is quite a collection of lost and found items – some are located on the shelves underneath the mailboxes downstairs and there are also 2 pairs of glasses in the office. Call the office to claim your missing items.
