F.E.A.S.T.Week of May 6, 2012
Today is the last WORLD RELIGIONS CLASS of the season. There are plans to resume
again in the fall, with the start date to be determined.
A reminder for Peace and Justice Committee members: the last meeting of the season will
be on Tuesday, May 15 at 7:00 p.m. in Fellowship Hall (instead of the Conference Room).
Members are asked to contact chairman Fred Brockmann if unable to attend. Plans for next
season, plus self-evaluation of our FEAST program are on the agenda. Input is needed form all
members, please!
We have openings for ALTAR FLOWERS in the month of June. On June 3, there is one
bouquet available and on June 24 two bouquets are available. Please sign the sheet in
Fellowship Hall if you are interested in dedicating flowers those dates. Bouquets are $25 each
and checks should be made out to the church with the notation “altars flowers” in the memo
line.
The deadline for the JUNE NEWSLETTER is Wednesday, May 15. Email your articles to

The new book group, READY READERS, which meets at noon on the third Thursday, will
read and discuss “Winter Garden” by Kristen Hannah on May 17 in the church library near the
entrance to Fellowship Hall. This book is on our R4R list and will be chaired by Ethel Rudy.
Our church will be hosting FAMILY PROMISE for the week of May 20 - May 26. We are
still in need of volunteers to provide wonderful meals for that period. We currently have 2
families with 5 adults and one infant and possible another to join. All of our efforts are truly
appreciated and needed. Please let Jan Drew or Betty Goldman know if you are able to help.

DRAMA KIDS Summer Camp is once again coming to First Congregational Church.
Registration forms are available in Fellowship Hall. The camp is designed for children ages 6-14.
Extended care is available from 8:30a.m. - 5:30 p.m. for $50 /week or $10/day in addition to camp
tuition. The actual camp hours are 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Our scheduled dates are Monday
through Friday, June 18 - 22. This year’s theme is COMEDY! Children work together in teams
and will write, direct and star in original plays with an end-of-camp presentation that parents and
grandparents will love! Tuition is $200 for the week, with a 10% sibling discount.
We are starting a SUPPORT GROUP, to begin meeting this summer, for those who are
struggling with their role as care giver for their spouse, parent, or other family member or
partner. Often those offering day to day care feel isolated and have questions about services
available to them or simply need to share and hear about others in a similar situation. Please call
the church office if you are interested in such a group.
Today is the last WORLD RELIGIONS CLASS of the season. There are plans to resumeagain in the fall, with the start date to be determined.
Sunday School for ages 3 through high school after the children's story.
