Potluck Picnic in the Park!
Despite the rain and being few in number, we had a lovely (indoor) picnic last Monday! Thanks to all who brought stories, baby news, food, and laughter! And thanks to Jim Doran for bringing the tunes!

In this case, food really is love!
If you are willing to put together a meal for a family of three on September 8th or 9th, please let Janet Westcott or Bobbi Stokes know. Family Promise is assisting a family of three, two adults and an 18-month-old little one, and this is our small way of helping support these folks until they can get into stable housing. The family gets training and a place to stay for now, so they can save their money for a security deposit and learn how best to manage their finances into the future. The current family members have no food allergies or notable preferences, so whatever you would like to make would be very welcome.

Guest Preachers
This week we welcome Tom Cura to the pulpit once again. Tom and his family have been regular attenders and we look forward to his bringing us the word at both services this coming Sunday.
Next Sunday, Rev. Denise Venturini-South, founding director of Cape Hope, will be leading worship for us as she shares the mission and vision of that organization combatting homelessness in Cape May County.
