Good day siblings in Christ,
Don’t forget to wear red tomorrow for Pentecost!
The last few weeks at OS have been full. This year, we partnered with a new after-school program on Wednesdays and it has been doing wonderfully. They have asked to extend their program to next year too. From this group, we’ve had two children’s parties at the church for the last two Saturdays. Phill also had a recital for his music students on Friday. It has been great!
This week, I am leaving after worship to head to Princeton for the week. Deacon Lee Ann is available if something comes up and help is needed. I will be unavailable until the end of the week.
This week, the community says goodbye to Rabbi Jaech and Pastor Bette. Pray for Temple Israel and Asbury UMC during their transitions.
Absolute last call! In July, there is a retreat with Faith Lutheran at Koinonia. I will be leading the weekend and Our Saviour is invited to join. It is $252 per person for two people to share a room for two nights. If you want a single room add $100. That cost includes 4 meals – Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Saturday and Breakfast Sunday. Here is the registration form and if you are paying, it is to Faith, Syosset and not Koinonia. Here is the registration. https://forms.gle/JpoCK9NPFr9fj7YU9
Finally, a note about YouTube: if you watch our service live, there is about a 15 second delay, so I try to let the video run. When the live broadcast is over, YouTube places the video into private mode until it is processed. I have to manually put it into public mode. It could take an hour or so for YouTube to process the video, so you may not be able to watch the recording until an hour or so after the service ends.
