ANNOUNCEMENTS
Everyone is invited to a Pampered Chef party Monday at 6:00 PM at Ramona King’s to benefit the church kitchen.  It has come to the Kitchen Committee’s attention that some supplies are missing from the kitchen so they have decided to host a party to help meet the shortage.  You may purchase an item from the needs list and/or purchase for yourself.  The hostess credit from your order will be used to purchase the supplies for the kitchen.  Please RSVP by July 29.  Thanks for your help! – Nancy, Rin, Martha & Sharon
Needed – Soft-sided, full-sized suitcases that can be used to take items to Moldova and then left there to be used by the Moldovan pastors.  Talk to Beth or Ramona if you can help with this. 
If anyone has a “boom box” that they can donate to the primary Sunday school department, please talk to Ramona King.  Cd and cassette capability is preferred, but cd only would still be appreciated.
On Aug. 12 Locust Grove’s morning service will be held at Amigo Centre in the Pavilion.  There will be no Sunday school.  Coffee and donuts will be served at 10:00 AM and the service will begin at 10:30 AM.  There will be a fellowship meal following the service.  Please bring a dish or two and your own table service.  An offering will be received for Amigo for the use of the facility.
ANNOUNCEMENTS, cont.
Our “Moldova Travelers” – Douglas Hasbrouck, Ramona King, Beth Miller, Timothy Reed, and Fred Schwartz – will be hosting a haystack dinner on Sunday, Aug. 19 to raise funds to purchase food for the poor in Moldova.  Please join us for this dinner and consider helping with this mission project.
All persons on the ballot last week were affirmed.
