TIME OF
RE-COMMITMENT
“All things come of Thee O Lord, and of thine own have we given Thee.” (I Chron. 29:14)
Last week we
celebrated Stewardship Sunday and acknowledged with thanksgiving all of God’s
gifts to us.
For those of you who were not here or who have not yet made your
commitment, pledge cards are available on the table in the back of the
chapel. Please fill them out and place them
in the offering plates. You may also mail
them to the church address. They need to
be turned in by Sunday, November 30th.
Please pray for the Stewardship of our Parish
to improve. Pray for our Vestry. Pray for your priest. And finally pray for God to give you a clear
sense of direction in your own offering to Him.
HOLIDAY BAKE SALE TODAY!
St. Anne’s Guild has homemade goodies for
sale to take home for Thanksgiving and crafts that make wonderful gifts. Items are available for sale after both
services. Please start your shopping

A SPECIAL
THANK YOU TO BOB AND CAROL FABBRI
The Annual Fall Festival and Parish Picnic
was a huge success. Many thanks to Bob
and Carol Fabbri who prepared and donated all the delicious
food. The ACW absorbed all other picnic
related costs and, as a result, St. Anne’s Guild donated $1262.00 to help
reduce our mortgage principle.
ROD EARHART IS
RECOVERING AT HOME
During the next few weeks, Patty would
appreciate men to help Rod get in and out of the car and assist Patty driving
to radiation treatments and various medical appointments. If you would like to help, please speak to
Father Hines or Vince Mills.
DID YOU KNOW?
Providing for your children in case you die
prematurely takes more than picking someone to raise them. You should also consider what will happen to
any money or property your children inherit from you. Who will manage it for them until they become
adults? You can leave these instructions
in your will or living trust. Many
parents don’t leave money directly to their children. Instead, they leave everything to each other,
with the understanding that the survivor will care for the children. They name their children as alternate
beneficiaries. Many single parents leave
property directly to their children.
Either way, you should arrange for someone to manage whatever property
they may inherit in case they receive it while they are still too young to
manage it themselves. You can take care
of this in your will or living trust.

We employ the rich Cerremonial
of the historic Church in our worship.
While it may seem a bit strange or unnatural to you at first, be
patient. The liturgical heritage of the
Church WILL speak to you in time, as it has to Christians through the centuries.
Welcome to Saint George’s Parish
In the Name of God the Father who created us and sustains the
world in which we live, God the Son who died for us and rose again to save us from
a life of sin and death, and God the Holy Ghost who inhabits and guides our
sacramental and prayerful worship of Him, the One and Triune God.
