While summer is still 4 months away we have more youth that would like to go to the Episcopal Diocese summer camps this year. Last year we received generous donations from many in our own congregation. The cost is much greater this year. I would like to ask anyone who feels so called to help the youth experience this great opportunity to please help us do this. Any amount at all would be very welcome and we can even make arrangements over several months prior to June. Please consider this worthy cause and contract me if you have any questions or would like to donate. Our children thank you in advance for your generosity.

Mary Mazurek (826-3722) There are envelopes in the church pews and on the piano for your contribution. Please make checks payable to: St. Simon's Sunday School
