The Outreach Committee will be hosting a Brat Fry on Saturday, August 14th but we need your help to make this a success!

 Located at Festival Foods on University, there will be two volunteer shifts from 9am to 1pm and 1pm to 5pm. If you can help out as a volunteer, please contact Kevin Kabacinski at 920-619-4458. And, as a thank you bonus, all volunteers receive a FREE brat!

 This year's Brat Fry proceeds are designated for the Presbyterian Pantry.

 We're hoping for good weather, hungry passerby's and outstanding volunteers to feed them.

 Thanks in advance for considering to help!

August 10 & 24, 10 am - noon

You can drop donations in the narthex on Sundays or at the office Mondays-Thursdays between 9:30 and 2pm at First Pres Church on 200 S. Ashland Avenue. The pantry is inside to serve our guests, with precautions posted for everyone. Following CDC Guidelines, masks will now be optional for those fully vaccinated (two weeks following the second dose). If you're not vaccinated, for whatever reason, we ask that you continue to wear a mask.

Thank you for helping us honor safety procedures. Our main goal is to provide food for guests..safely. Please continue to use the door on Howard Street. 

The Pantry is on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month. ALL are Welcome! 

Continuing thru July each Wednesday from 6:30 to 7:30 pm on Zoom

ALL are welcome to a new adult bible study, The Bible Tells Me So.  We meet on Zoom each Wednesday from 6:30 to 7:30pm thru July. This no-prep study will feature a video clip and discussion each week as we look at how to let the Bible be the Bible and not bend it to meet our needs or expectations.  The author promises to stir our imagination, deepen our trust in God, and make the Bible come alive in new ways for us all. Join us and invite a friend. Contact the church office or Pastor Katie for the Zoom link. (If enough people indicate an interest in meeting in person, we could add that on Thursday mornings!) 

On Sunday, Sunday, June 6^th, we resumed having a modified Coffee Fellowship time after worship. It takes place outside on the church lawn and features coffee and lemonade along with pre-packaged snacks. Some tables and chairs are set up for those who prefer to socialize while seated. Our committees is taking turns hosting throughout July and August, and Coffee Fellowship will be re-evaluated for fall. Coffee Fell0owship will not take place if there is inclement weather. 

Our Fellowship is a great opportunity to visit and catch up with others after worship while enjoying our beautiful summer weather so join us. Please reach out to the church office if you are not part of a committee but would like to help out this summer with Coffee Fellowship.

Hosts for July are: 

• July 4th - Personnel Committee
• July 11th - Communications & Marketing Committee
• July 18th - Building & Grounds Committee
• July 25th - Outreach Committee

On Sunday June 27th, we celebrated the Sacrament of Baptism for Lenora Jean Arcand, daughter of Sara (Solper) and Joshua Arcand, granddaughter of Dave and Lisa Solper. We were pleased to have Jenny Solper participate as an elder.

Baptism is a gift to us all, and the  reminder of God’s love, grace and mercy were poured out on all present in the sanctuary and participating online. 

Thanks be to God!
