Sunday, June 29th: our worship service begins at 10am. If you can’t attend in person, you are invited to join our live webcast via Zoom. Our special Pride Potluck lunch follows the service.

Monday, June 30th: UpLifted, our College & Young Adult group meets at 7pm in the Sanctuary to screen the documentary 1946: The Mistranslation that Shifted Culture. Read more about the movie at 1946themovie.com.

Friday, July 4th: it’s Independence Day. If you like to celebrate with fireworks, please follow county ordinances (remember: it’s pretty dry around these parts and not all pets enjoy loud noises or smoke). Thanks in advance for being careful.

Saturday, July 5th: our next Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry is from 9-11am in the rear of the church near Davis Hall. Volunteers should arrive at 8am to help get ready.

This summer: we’re continuing the tradition of skipping regularly scheduled meetings during July. However, Fellowship time will continue in July and be sponsored by the church’s LGBTQ membership. Fellowship will then be on hiatus in August.

You can see upcoming events by visiting our new online calendar at shucc.org. Scroll through future months to see what’s happening later this month or this year. Spot something we’re missing? Drop us an email at shuccoffice@gmail.com.

Our Teacher Supply Drive begins in August to help local teachers stock-up their classrooms before the start of classes. You can drop the following items in the donation bin in the church lobby:

• Copy Paper
• Construction Paper
• 3-prong plastic pocket folders
• Pencils
• Dry-erase markers
• Glue sticks
• Crayons

The St. Pauly Clothing Shed in the rear of the church collects gently used clothing and other items for families in need. Please donate clothing, shoes, belts, purses, blankets, sheets, pillowcases, curtains, and stuffed animals. Please do not bring electronics, books, household items, toys, pillows, garbage, rags or fabric scraps.

Sunday service greeters, welcome desk attendants, and liturgists can volunteer by signing up at the welcome desk in the church lobby on Sunday.

If you have information for this newsletter or the church calendar, please see Alice Zawacki on Sundays or send an email.
