THANKS TO ALL FOR
ASCENSION DAY
Thank you to all who
were able to come worship
Ascension Eve and support
our shrimp boil. Special
thanks go to Linda Philips for
our shrimp sauce and
cooking the shrimp; to Olive,
Sharon and Anne for also
cooking shrimp, and to Olive
and Patti for setting up, and
all who helped clean up
afterwards. The choir, the
Altar Guild, the Acolytes and
the ushers made our worship
all the more meaningful and
glorious!
BISHOP MORALES SAYS
“THANK YOU!”
Bishop Morales and
Le Roy enjoyed being with us
last Sunday, and fully
appreciated the love and
hospitality they received
while with us. As you recall
from his wonderful message,
he’d love to see us all at the
Synod in October this year!
Thank you to the Acolytes,
Altar Guild, Choir, Sarah, and
all who made the worship
and the brunch afterwards
such a success. And thanks
to Dee for arranging for the
clubhouse at Coronada!
ORDINATION AT
CONCORDIA
Our friends at Concordia will
Ordain and institute as their
new pastor Dr. Eric Phillips
on Sunday, June1, at 3:00
p.m. Congratulations and
thanks be to God!
SUMMERTIME AND TRAVEL
As we prepare to enjoy
vacation travel this summer, let’s
remember that God our Father
doesn’t take a vacation. If you
wish to check out ahead of time
the churches in your vacation
area, please let Fr. Guill know
and he can help you find an
Anglican Parish while you are
traveling.
In addition, remember
that the Church’s obligations do
not take a vacation either.
Please continue your great
financial support that you
already have been giving to Our
Lord.
STAND UP FOR EASTER
It
is
customary
following an ancient tradition
to
stand
during
the
consecratory prayer of the
Mass during Easter Tide.
This symbolizes our future
state after the general
resurrection
through
our
sharing
of
Christ’s
resurrection by our baptism.
We stand not on our own
merit, but on Christ’s victory.
TRAVELING TO MIDDLE
EARTH!
We have begun
another lecture series on J.
R. R. R. Tolkien’s famous
Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
Tolkien was a philologist who
studied Middle English,
Norse and other European
languages and mythologies,
but he was also a Christian.
Come hear of the hidden
meanings behind these
books, which, other than the
Bible, sold more copies than
any other books in the 20th
Century.
LEGAL DEFENSE FUND
The Diocese has
started a fund drive to help
pay our attorneys who led our
Diocese to a victory the
Circuit Court in Adams
County.
To make a
contribution, please make
your check payable to the
American Anglican Council
and place “Quincy Defense
Fund” in the memo line. Your
gift is tax deductible. Please
mail the check to:
Mark
Gamage, 3914 W. Crimson
Rd, Dunlap, IL 61525.
FLOWER SIGN-UPS
We have the new
2013-14 sign-up sheet for
flowers posted in the hallway
by the Pastor’s Study.
RECTOR’S
DISCRETIONARY FUND
Please remember that
the open offering from the first
Sunday of each month goes
toward
the
Rector’s
Discretionary Fund. Fr. Guill
uses the majority of these funds
to help parishioners and other
families who are not members of
St. Andrew’s to meet emergency
financial needs. He is also
authorized to use these funds to
pay the costs of his legal and
ecclesial seminars.
