Come for the entire time or for whatever time you can spare, but we need your help so that we can check things off our list! Items include inside cleaning and organizing and some possible pressure washing of outside areas and yard work. Sign up here so we know how many to expect. We do best the things we do together!

| Sunday we began our Summer Series
leaning into VBS and reflecting on the stories of our faith. Each Sunday of June we will use one of the stories from our own VBS week to shape our time together in worship and learn alongside our kids. During July, we will hear from some of our PHUMC members as they share what their go-to VBS story would be and why. I am excited to share this time with you each Sunday over the next couple of months, and I hope this time together brings back some good VBS memories of your own and inspires you to reflect on your own go-to VBS story.
June 7: Dreamers/Genesis 40:1-41:45 and special music by our Jubilation Ringers
June 14: Givers/Mark 12:41-44
June 21: Hear all about VBS from our PHUMC kids!
June 28: Those Who Hope!/Acts 3; Special Music: VBS Medley
July 5: Brunch Worship at 10:00 am/No Sunday School and No Livestream
July 12, 19, and 26 at 10:45 am: Each Sunday members of PHUMC will share what their go-to VBS story would be and why.

It won't be long before we welcome our new Minister for Youth and Outreach Ministries. Anne Marie and her family have had to readjust some plans but Anne Marie, her husband, Cortez, and their 2 year old son, Tezzi, plan on moving June 17 or 18. Stay tuned for days and times we can aid them in moving in!
Anne Marie's official start date will be Sunday, June 28, but the youth and families will welcome her at a pool party Saturday, June 20 at the Henry home. As they settle, we want to aid them in the most helpful way, so we will be collecting gift cards. You can either contribute to a Walmart gift card (see Pastor Dawn) or purchase a gift card to a local place to eat and bring it to the church office so they have plenty of options while they unpack. Please get these to the church office by Sunday, June 21, and please be in prayer for Anne Marie and her family as they embark on a new journey with Parkway Hills.

| Affordability is being thrown around in all the talking points, and we know affordable housing is a constant source of discussion. There is a way for us to do more than talk and worry. Habitat for Humanity has been around for 50 years aiding in providing affordable housing for those who might never have been able to own a home. Parkway Hills has worked alongside Habitat for Humanity through providing funds and most importantly, signing up to help with the builds. Our next work day is Saturday, June 27 from 12:45 to 4:00. We need 12 individuals to cover our slot. You must be at least 16 to participate. Click here to sign up today!
