Announcements
We welcome Bishop Lucinda to our services today.  Please join us for coffee hour when we will have a chance to introduce her more fully to St. Benedict’s and get to know her better.

A Big Thank You to everyone who participated in the Community Dinner last week.  101 dinners with a July 4 theme were served to our neighbors.  Thanks to Maureen Titus for coordinating it.

Our next service events are Laundry Love on Wednesday, July 29 and People’s Kitchen on Saturday, August 1.  Please make sure they are on your calendar.  Also, we have a grant to do a second monthly Laundry Love with a particular outreach to seniors.  If you can help, please let Caro+ know.

Pausing: Join Caro+ very evening at 7pm on Facebook to pause for a few minutes of reflection and prayer  (www.facebook.com/stbenslososos/live/). Some members are using this short (3-4 minutes) video as an evening or morning reflection. If one Pausing particularly touches you, please share it on your own Facebook page for others to enjoy

If you would like someone from the healing team to pray with you by phone, Louisa Beeler is available this week.  (805) 543-2898.
