CAMPBELL’S SOUP COMPANY is discontinuing their Labels for Education incentive and reward program the end of August. As we support Shambaugh Elementary School, they will be stopping this program the end of May by sending in their last collection. For those of you who save these labels, please bring in what you have by Tuesday, May 18. We will continue to save the Box Tops for Education on General Mills products for the school. Thanks to all of the families who have contributed in the past and will continue in the future. Anita Grams, Coordinator

SHEPHERD’S HOUSE An updated list of items needed by the Shepherd’s House was received and is on the Bulletin Board. A typed list has been made available on the table in the Narthex for you to take home. Thank you for your continued support. Norm Grams, Coordinator

COFFEE HOUR: Do you feel that fellowship is important? If yes, then we are looking for you to sign up to host a coffee hour.  It’s fun and easy: just bring some goodies to share after the 10:15 Sunday service.  If you are unsure about making coffee, no worries, there is always someone around who can help.  It’s a great way to connect with all the wonderful people at St. Albans.  The sign-up sheet is on the bulletin board with all the details.

ENDOWMENT FUND:  As many of you know we have an ever-growing endowment fund that is designed to help the long range financial goals here at Saint Alban’s.  The Endowment Board is actively looking into having a planned giving presentation in the fall, so keep a look out for that.  If you would like to talk about planned giving through a bequest or any other means, then please do not hesitate to contact John Naunas, Marilyn Rafter, Josh Miller or Tom Taylor.  Of course donations to the Endowment fund can be given at any time by writing checks to Saint Alban’s and using the “yellow” envelopes.  If you need envelopes please let the office know.
SUMMER LUNCH PROGRAM Help is needed from June 6 – July 29,
Monday – Friday. Please sign up for a day, one or two weeks if possible.
We also need help for crafts. Please notify Marilyn Crewe or Marilyn
McClure if you have any questions. Thank you.
