Congratulations to Emily Behler and Lee Bidgood who were married last Sunday at the Greenwood Community Center. Maren and Roy performed the wedding along with two other clergy.

Please email bulletin announcements to BethPratt@earthlink.net by Wednesday noon.

Musicians: The sign-up sheet for service music has many empty spaces, each one an opportunity for practice this summer. Please check the bulletin board to see if any of the available dates would work into your summer schedule. Thanks, Linda

Volunteers for the Salvation Army soup kitchen are needed for Thursdays from 4:30 until 6:30. It is possible to come after 5 p.m. Please reply to the pastors. Two to three volunteers are needed each week.

Thanks to all who helped with and participated in the church retreat this year. Special thanks to the Alderfer family for all their work in making it happen. We had another great weekend, a talent show that unearthed an amazing variety of talents and no thunderstorm during the pool time on Saturday.

Thank you to all those who gave leadership to the church in the past year. We welcome the new leadership team for Charlottesville Mennonite Church. Please keep them in your prayers.
