Adult Education
2011
Throughout the spring, adults
meet in the Parish Hall to study the world's major
religions. DVDs from the Teaching Company about the history
and nature of the various religions were shown to set the
stage for discussion. The coordinator of the adult education
program is our Vicar.
The current topic under
discussion, through early May,
on Sunday at 9:00
am:
Understanding Judaism
Let's Go
Green
Thank you for bringing in
supplies for the kitchen and for coffee hour. I am
requesting that we use no more Styrofoam. Once it has food
in it, it cannot be recycled. Paper cups are available for
hot liquids or we can use our lovely blue mugs. In addition,
save your vicar the trouble of getting plastic, aluminum (as
in soda cans) glass and cardboard out of the garbage. We
will try to have a container for recyclables shortly. Until
then, leave them on the counter, preferably rinsed out and
we will be sure that they get to the recycling
bins.
There is now a bin behind
the Sheriff's Office for all sorts of paper as well as bins,
of course, for bottles, cans, newspapers and
magazines.
You now have a choice
when you use the ATM to either have a receipt printed or not
when you use the ATM. According to a feature on Good Morning
America, nine millions trees are used for the number of
receipts that are printed per year. The amount of paper used
is enough to encircle the globe 15 times. So when a machine
asks if you want a receipt, say 'No thanks' unless you
really need it.
