ARC  OF  19  CHURCH  ST.  INVITES  YOU ~ The Church Office received a handwritten invitation from our ARC House at 19 Church St. (next door) to "Everyone at the First Presbyterian Church of Pittsford."
On Sunday, 17 August 2008, 19 Church St. is having a "HAWAIIAN-THEMED END OF SUMMER BASH."  The time on the invitation is 12 noon - 5:00 p.m.   R.S.V.P.  489-0107.  "There will be Food, Music, and Fun!" 
I'm sure the ARC residents and ARC staff at 19 Church St. would be very honored if people from our church stopped by.  I am phoning the 19 Church St. Program manager, Ms. Henderson, to tell her that any of you who are able to drop in will phone 489-0107  by Sun., 10 Aug. 2008.  That way, they'll have at least a week's notice of how many to expect from our church. Diane Graziano

KINGDOM BOUND ~ has been cancelled. Wristbands for $60 for a day can be purchased if you would still like to attend. Please call Judy Messenger at 473-1048 or Niki at 586-5688 for more information.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

ARC House Outreach Volunteers Needed: The Outreach Committee is looking for volunteers to help support the Sunday Morning A.M. Service ARC House Chaperoning Program. If interested in volunteering or if you have any questions regarding this program, please contact John Valenti @ 585-671-5964 or Diane Graziano.  There are volunteer openings for the months of September and December.  Together let us all continue to support the continuance of this local mission that began in 1990

Please welcome ~ our guest organist Yeonhee Shim. Yeonhee is a doctoral student in organ at Eastman and will be with us for the next few weeks.

Correction to the July/August Newsbrief ~ The Sunday morning Bible study meets from 8:15 until 9:15 prior to the 9:30 service. This is a great time to get out in the cooler morning air and start your Sabbath off right, with a small group discussion of God’s special Word to you.

Summer Sunday School Program ~ Our format for June 22 through August 31 is as follows:
Nursery (birth up to 4 years old) – in Nursery
Preschool (4 years old to young K) – downstairs in Room 3
Incoming Kindergarten to 3rd Grade – downstairs in Room 2, after Mouse Report
Incoming 4th Grade to 6th Grade – downstairs in Room 7, after Mouse Report
Incoming 7th Grade to 12th Grade – Youth Room

PENCIL…WANT ADS…TELEPHONE.  “Sorry, but we don’t have any openings at this time.” The bills are mounting up….If you don’t find some way to relieve the pressure, you’re afraid you’ll explode. At a time like this you need the listening ear and the caring support of a Stephen Minister. To find out more about Stephen Ministry for you or someone you know, talk with one of our Stephen Ministry Leaders: Jane Hunter, Alice O’Dwyer, Kay Saxum, Barbara Smith, Dick Sprenkle or Carol Tiemann (223-1466). Our Stephen Ministers are there to care!


Have you noticed?
Better mothers make better kids and Better kids make a better world.

Hope, Encouragement. Resources, Support
That time and place would be HERS
