On Saturday, July 26 Deacon Chuck and Janet Zellermayer will host a parish campfire/camp-out night.  Come to share in a "trash can barbecue dinner" and stay for campfire and social time.  Stay and camp overnight if you'd like.  Sign-up sheet is in the parish hall or else reply to this email to RSVP.

Welcome to new members Jake and Jennifer Ackerman and their son, Brexton. 

Bishop Steven Miller has appointed Fr. Scott as a Chaplain to the Clergy in the Diocese and as well as Dean of Waukesha County.  In his role of Chaplain, Fr. Scott will be available to meet with clergy who may be in need of pastoral care.  As Dean, Scott will convene meetings of the clergy in the county and help to foster communication between parishes, local clergy and the Office of the Bishop.

On Mission
On July 11, six members of St. Mary's are leaving for a ten-day mission trip to St. Marc's Parish, school and clinic in Jeannette Haiti.  Keep them in your prayers and thoughts.  Pray for Mary Alice, Deacon Chuck, Holly, McKayla and Christina, Bill and the people of Jeannette.

On July 12, Dave, Liz, Mike, Mia, Amberlee, Maile, Alex, Hope, Frannie, Ally, Maddie, Leah, Anya and Alli will leave for a week-long youth mission trip to Blue Knob, PA.  Please pray for them. 

Pray that both groups know that they go with our prayers, support and blessings.  Pray that God may touch them and those they seek to serve with the peace and presence of the Holy Spirit.

The Outreach Committee of St. Mary's Parish invites you in a special way to remember those who are hungry and in need this summer:  "Jesus fed 5,000 people in one day- how many can we feed in one summer?" 

During July and August, the Kettle Moraine Food Pantry collection barrels will be in the front of the church.  On these summer Sundays when you come to the Lord's Table, please bring something for the tables of those who are hungry.
