ST. DUNSTANS ANNUAL CLEAN UP DAY THIS SATURDAY!!!
Its here!!! Its now!!! (Wellalmost.) And it includes food!!! Yes, its the umpteenth Annual Clean Up Day.
May 2nd , beginning at 9 am we will buff, shovel, consult, laugh, groan, dig, polish, scrub and otherwise do as
St. Benedict urged his monks to do dailymanual work. Thats right folks. This is your chance to make St.
Dunstans glow. Well start in at 9 am and hope to finish by noon. There will be a cookout with hot dogs and
hamburgers and other trimmings. Many hands make light work! So come and join us. Bring work gloves,
rakes, etc. and join in the fun!!!
SPECIAL COFFEE HOUR:
A special coffee hour is planned for May 17, 2015, after the 10am Eucharist, to honor Judy Stockbridges 20
years of faithful service to Saint Dunstans Church as Directress of the Altar Guild. We would like to serve
finger foods, such as coffee cake, cheese and crackers, breads, deviled eggs, cold cuts, fruit bites, and of course,
juice and coffee. There is a sign-up list on the bulletin board of the undercroft, and we hope you will come and
join in the celebration.
SIGN UP FOR PENTECOST EXPANDED COFFEE HOUR MAY 24:
A sign up sheet is available in the undercroft to bring in something to share after the combined 9am service.
Finger foods, fruit, cheese and dessert are suggested.
THANK YOU!
Dear Saint Dunstans congregation,
Jamie and I would like to thank you all for the lovely bouquet of flowers. Also, thank you to everyone for the
reception and exquisite vase. We will miss you all so very much when we move to Florida. You have all been our friends
over these years here and we leave with many fond memories.
Love, Peg and Jamie White

PRAYER REQUESTS: As requested, Prayer Request Cards may now be found on hooks in the pews, as well
as on the table at the back of the nave.
Service Opportunity
May is the month when St. Dunstans does hands on support at Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry. Please
remember to sign up for your opportunity to help. See Joe Stockbridge or Harvey Kelley for more
information.
The 2015 Fair Committee had its first meeting on March 19th. At that meeting the committee discussed
how we might fund fair expenses. It was decided to have a series of small "pop up" baked goods and seedling
sales at coffee hour throughout the spring and summer. All members of the parish are encouraged to
contribute to this effort (a tray of seedlings, a bag of cookies, a loaf of bread or even a pie!) in the next seven
months. Full minutes of the meeting will be available before the next ECW meeting.
Gentle reminder: Should you care to support the Coffee Hour ministry, there is a basket for donations on the
table in the Fellowship Hall.

Remember to wear your nametags each Sunday!
