No Supper Song & Prayer Wed 6-27-12

Now there are air conditioner issues at church, and as the only certainty with Tropical Storm Debby continues to be uncertainity, and as our speaker would prefer not to deal with the water issues that continue to plague Snell Isle, I've decided it's best to err on the side of safety and cancel SSP for tomorrow evening.  Blessings, Lisa
P.S. Stay tuned for VBS update...

No Men's Bible Study or Noon Eucharist Wed 6-27-12

Stay Home & Stay Safe!  Stay tuned for VBS and Supper, Song & Prayer announcements.  Power has been restored, but travel on and around Snell Isle remains trecherous.  Wind is preventing water from receding.  Thanks to Karolyn & Walt Jaap and Ted Steinwender for cleaning out fridge & freezer & generally checking on buildings and grounds during Tropical Storm Debby. Our new bridge is passing this test with flying colors.  I'm camping out at Barbara Suhar's and remain available at 203-820-6747. 

So quiet at St. Thomas

Greetings All
Looks like another quiet day at home.  The church is also quiet.  Not exactly what we were all hoping for today.  I have to send out many thanks to all who have been checking in and supporting the effort. I can certainly feel the St. Thomas love.  Prayer go out all those dealing with flood, damage and electricity outage. I know you're out there.  If you need something I am glad to post for you.  Just keep texting.  Remember we're a community and we want to help.

To those who have worked so hard to prepare for V.B.S - YOU ROCK!  Keep the faith, we'll get it done somehow.

Will check back in when there is more news.
Peace,
Elaine

No Electricity=No VBS & Office closed Tues 6/26

Sorry to bear bad news, but there's no power at the church as of this morning, Tuesday, June 26.  No Vacation Bible School today, and office will be closed.  In case of pastoral emergency, call Rev. Lisa at 203-820-6747.  We're fortunate that the only "gifts" Tropical Storm Debby has brought to St. Thomas are in the form of tree debris.  Many thanks to God and all God's helpers for our new roof.  Stay safe!

VBS/Office Opening News will post tomorrow @ 7 am; as of now, electricity is half-power, hopefully it will be fixed tonight. STAY SAFE!
