Evangelical Seminary is an affiliate organization of our denomination (the Evangelical Congregational Church). The seminary is holding some events in May where we can lend our time as a gift to the Lord and to the school:

FRIDAY, MAY 14 GRADUATION: Praise the Lord—graduation can happen this year! Our own Shelley Miller will be receiving her Master of Divinity degree! Because of COVID, the graduation ceremonies and outdoor reception are being held this year at Frieden’s Lutheran Churchat the corner of 422 and 645 in Myerstown. 

The seminary needs parking assistants and people to help serve at the outdoor reception (dipping punch, serving snacks, assisting with managing cups, and plates, etc.). There are two ceremonies with the reception between them. Come see Kirby and Pastor Tim in funny hats!

  • The first graduation ceremony is at 5:00 p.m., so the parking helpers are needed about 4:15 to 5:30 p.m.
  • The reception helpers are needed from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
  • The second graduation ceremony is at 7:30 p.m., so parking helpers will be needed 6:15 to 7:30 p.m.
  • Let Sonya know if God is inviting you to pitch in and help.
  • The Valentinos need someone to stay at their house and watch movies with Lorena from 5 to 9:00 p.m. This is a paid opportunity.

THURSDAY, MAY 20 GOLF TOURNAMENT: If you golf, we would be delighted to have you do that and help raise money for the school. If you don’t golf, you can still help out! Specifically, if you are willing to observe the hole-in-one contest or organize snacks, please let Sonya know that God has nudged you to serve. Thank you for your consideration!
