Lector Training Meeting
2024-05-18 10:00 - 11:00 (America/New_York) | HCLC Sanctuary, 2 Lord St, Kennebunk, ME, 04043, United States
We are in the process of reinstituting the ministry of Lectors at Holy Cross. The lector is the person responsible for reading the first two bible lessons and the psalm at Sunday Worship. This is a good choice for people who would like to read the lessons, but do not wish to be worship assistants. As a lector, you would simply leave your seat to go to the podium to read, then return to your seat at worship when finished.
To be a lector, you need only be an attendee who is able to read the lessons well and commit to a schedule. All lectors will be trained.
Being a lector is an excellent way to involve children. One does not have to be confirmed to be a lector. There is no age requirement, as long as the child is able to read well. I recommend that children who read at worship be accompanied by an adult, and perhaps share the responsibility.
If you are currently a worship assistant, you may also sign up for the roster of lectors. Once the lectors are trained and ready, the worship assistant will no longer be responsible for fulfilling the lector’s role at worship.
THERE WILL BE AN INFORMATIONAL MEETING ON SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 18TH, AT 10:00AM IN THE SANCTUARY.
If you have any questions, or if you are interested and cannot attend the informational session, feel free to call me at 207-854-4321, or email me at wbarter@nesynod.org.
Thanks!

Pentecost Sunday Worship Service with Holy Communion - Wear Red!
2024-05-19 10:00 - 11:00 (Asia/Karachi) | HCLC Sanctuary, 2 Lord St, Kennebunk, ME, 04043, United States
PENTECOST SUNDAY
Pentecost Sunday is May 24th!
Fifty days after Easter, we celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit
on Pentecost. Crossing all boundaries that would separate us, the
Spirit brings the wideness of God’s mercy to places we least expect it –
to a crowd of strangers of different lands and tongues, to dry bones, to
our weak hearts. Jesus promises his disciples that they will be
accompanied by the Holy Spirit, and that this Spirit reveals the truth.
We celebrate that we too have been visited with this same Spirit.
Guided by the truth, we join together in worship, and then disperse to
share the fullness of Christ’s love with the world.
Don’t forget to wear red!

Planting Day for HCLC Community Garden

READY, SET, GROW!
Planting Day for the HCLC Community Garden is Sunday June 2nd after church service and, of course, coffee
hour (15 minutes). Please come and help us! Dress in garden wear for church, and bring garden gloves, small
shovels, clippers, etc. We have the soil, planters, plants – veggies and flowers, hoses and watering cans.
If everybody could check their calendars in advance so we can have volunteers sign up for watering duty, that
would be helpful.
Fun, sun, dirt and community spirit will be had by all! Rain (if it is a complete deluge) is Sunday, June 9th.
Please see Ellen Michalowski or Susan Engel with any questions.
