Goodbye, Father John!

It is with sadness that we soon bid Fr. John

farewell but relief and gratitude that it is

just a temporary farewell. Fr. John will

begin his sabbatical on June 12th and

return in October. On behalf of the entire

parish, we would like to wish Fr. John a restful and restorative

sabbatical. We look forward to welcoming our pastor back in

the fall, rejuvenated and re-energized and anxious to resume his

wise leadership of our church.

Meals on Wheels

Are you or someone you know in need of meals?

Call Meals on Wheels of Western Broome at

754-7856 for more information. Our volunteers

deliver more than a meal—they bring a friendly smile and a

daily check-in to ensure that you and/or your loved one can

remain healthy and independent. If you are interested in

becoming one of our amazing volunteers, ask to speak to Jackie.

Or speak with our own Ingrid or Harold Elliott, faithful

volunteers in the program. Substitute drivers are also needed if

you cannot make a weekly commitment. All you need is the

desire to serve!

Pastoral Reminder: We need your help!

Please be aware that hospitals and nursing homes

do not notify the Church Office of admissions to

their facilities, even though some of them ask

your church affiliation during the admission

process. THEY DO NOT CALL! It is your

responsibility to notify the Rector.

During my sabbatical, we have made arrangements for visits to

be made to our homebound, those in the hospitals and nursing

homes. Luther Chergosky, Ruthie Koerts and Jennifer

Westermann will provide this ministry. I am grateful to them

for their willingness to accept this ministry.

Also, if you know of a family member of a parishioner who has

passed away while I am gone please notify the office. It will

also help me to know this information upon my return.

During this time if a need arises please contact either Jennifer

Westermann or Bruce Dailey.

Fr. John+

Name Tags are Back!

While Fr. John is away on sabbatical the

Rev. Bill Lutz will be celebrating the

Eucharist with us on Sundays. To make

things a little easier for Fr. Bill, we ask that

you identify yourself via a name sticker as

you arrive for worship. The ushers will

have them for you each Sunday. A bonus of wearing name tags

is that it also makes us more welcoming to visitors to our

church! Note: If you prefer a regular name tag please let us

know and one will be provided for you!

Annual Church Picnic Sunday, June 11th, 11:15AM

Please note change in location – Glendale Park

It’s time for our Annual Church Picnic!

Join us at Glendale Park on Sunday, June 11

at 11:15 a.m. for a worship service followed

by a summer cookout. Look for us in

Pavilion #2. A free will offering will cover

the hot dogs and hamburgers, dinnerware

and drinks; you are invited to bring a dish to

share. This year there will be some special entertainment after

the service! Include your friends as this is a

great opportunity to get to know each other.

Feel free to bring along any “picnic games”

(bean bag toss, ladderball, etc.) you may

have. There will still be a regular 8:00 a.m.

service, as well as a 10:00 a.m. service (there

will be no music at either 8:00 or 10:00

a.m.). The grounds at Glendale Park are

level and there are no hills to climb. There is also an area where

you can drive up and drop someone off if needed.

If you would like to help with this, please contact Sindy Garey at

744-7861 to help with set-up and/or clean-up.

It is Merry Mowing Time!

The sun is shining (sometimes) and the

rain is raining (often!) resulting in the

grass growing! Mowers are needed to

keep the grounds neat and tidy. A self-

propelled mower is in the shed; a

calendar sign-up sheet is on the table in

the back of the church. If it is convenient for your schedule, the

ideal mowing days are Thursday through Saturday so the lawn

looks nice for Sunday. Your help is most appreciated!

Women of the Church News

The WOC picnic will be held on June 7th at

the home of Sandy and Dick Schwab (4128

Tripp Lake Road, Montrose, PA). It is about a

35 minute drive from the church. Directions

will be available prior to the picnic via email

and at the back of the church. This year in addition to

socializing, we are going to include a brief business meeting to

allow for a rummage sale update and to vote on distribution of

funds. Please plan to arrive between 4 and 4:30. We will hold

our business meeting and then have dinner at 5:45. For those

who work or need more time, please feel free to join us

whenever your schedule permits. Those wishing to car pool

should meet at the church at 3:15. Please bring a dish to pass

(and a lawn chair if possible). Suggestions for uses of our funds

can be given to me personally (in writing so as not to rely on my

memory) or via email prior to the meeting. I will then prepare a

list for consideration at the meeting. As in the past, please

research to insure that the suggested need still exists and the

organization continues to be viable.

The next sleeping bag workshop will be held on

Thursday June 8th at 1 p.m. A sign-up sheet will be at the

back of the church.

Thanks to all who helped out with the spring

rummage sale. The support certainly proved that together we

can make a difference.

Sandy Schwab, Chair

Part-time Teacher Needed

We now have an opening for a part-time teacher for our

“Middle” (8 to 9 year olds) Sunday School class. This would

not be a weekly commitment, only once or maybe twice a

month. The curriculum is very user-friendly and the kids are

a delight! Please see Jennifer Westermann for more

information. Note: Classes will resume in the fall.

Ice Cream Social Wednesday, August 16th , 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM

St. Paul’s Annual Community Ice Cream Social

is being held this year on Wednesday, August

16th at 6:00 PM. Come out and enjoy some

delicious Hershey’s Ice Cream, animals from the

Zoo Mobile and try your luck at our Raffle

Table. This free event is open to all so be sure to invite your

friends, neighbors and family.

Help is needed to make this event happen and there are jobs

for everyone! Tables, chairs and tents need to be set up, ice

cream scoopers are needed, help with clean-up afterwards and

even someone to make sure all our guests fill out a raffle ticket

for the baskets. Your pay? All the ice cream you can eat! Look

for a sign-up sheet in the back of the church later in July or talk

to Eunice Barton. She is ready to take names!

Blessing Service for PRIDE Wednesday, June 14, 7:00 PM The Binghamton Unitarian Universalist

Congregation is hosting the People of

Blessing Service as part of PRIDE Month,

Wednesday, June 14th at 7:00 PM. The

service affirms diversity in community, lifting up the common

thread amongst us and affirming people of all sexual

orientations and gender identities. The theme for this year’s

service is “God Is Still Speaking." The service will include

music, readings, speakers and a shared blessing by community

clergy. The offering for the evening will go to support this

annual service and other programs of the PRIDE Coalition. All

are welcome. Refreshments will be provided following the

service. The Binghamton Unitarian Universalist Congregation is

located next to Lourdes Hospital at 183 Riverside Drive,
