Knights of Columbus
The monthly general membership meeting is being held today at 1 p.m. in the church.

Healing Service
The monthly ancient healing service is scheduled for Wednesday, July 14. Please invite your friends to hear Fathers talk on God’s guarantee for healing all diseases, immerse themselves in this beautiful service, and benefit from God’s graces bestowed on those with faith.
Marriage Exhibit
Remember, if you want to assist the eparchy with their exhibit promoting the sacred mystery of matrimony they are looking for photos and other mementos. Call the rectory. We will scan photos in the rectory office and return them. If you’re willing to donate items bring them in. If you are willing to loan the exhibit items please let the rectory know as well. For those who wish to make a financial donation to offset the expense of the exhibit you can use a special envelope and place it in the collection basket.
Fund Raising
An order for scrip cards is being placed on Monday. If you have specific scrip cards you would like to order please call the rectory by Monday morning. Thanks for supporting this program.
Last Thursday Al Z., Cyndi H., John D. baked 85 rolls. Richard M. helped with wrapping. On Saturday, July 10, Joe K. and Cyndi H. sold rolls at the Binford market while Paul S. & John D. sold rolls at the Carmel market. Thank you all. This Thursday we plan to make rolls, pumpkin log & kolachy. If anyone wants to assist at the markets or baking or kitchen set-up / cleaning please call the rectory.

Saints Peter and Paul
A holy day of obligation is this Tuesday. We will have a vigil Divine Liturgy on Monday and Divine Liturgy on the morning of the feast. See the schedule for liturgical times. The Apostles Fast concludes on Monday evening. Although optional, during the day on Monday you should try to observe a day of strict fasting.

Independence Day
Next weekend is the national holiday of the United States of America’s independence. If you have visitors please bring them to St. Athanasius parish for Divine Liturgy on Saturday, July 3^rd or Sunday, July 4^th. In addition to your family picnics & barbeques include glorifying God in your plans and bring your friends.
Fund Raising
Thank you to Al Zetsel and his grandsons, Bradley and Alex for performing a large amount of the work in preparing dough through assembling the rolls on Thursday. John Russell helped with some of the prep work too. Bill Ferguson and Richard Medwig also helped John D. wrap the 86 rolls. Praise God that it was a productive day. On Saturday, June 26, Danny Enciso & Paul Suvak brought in $464 in bake sales at the Carmel Farmers Market and John D. collected $173 in sales at the Binford Farmers Market. Thank you for your prayers! By the way we’re not trying to be exclusively a men’s operation. Women are invited too.
With market sales doing so well we need your assistance in making and wrapping the products to sell. Currently we need to produce poppy seed (we made 16 and have 2 left) & apricot rolls (we made 5 and there is none remaining), kolachy and pumpkin logs. We’ve got requests but no inventory. Please talk to John so we can determine the best date for the next bake day. Prior to Saturday is what we need.

On Saturday, June 19 and Sunday, June 20 the Eparchial family will gather for the 1^st Midwest Region Family Otpust.

Parish displays are available on Saturday afternoon. If you’re interested in participating in a parish display we need to know by June 7^th.

A group is baking in St. Mary’s Hall on Thursday, June 3rd – both parishioners and friends of the parish alike. If you have a day job we still need your help at the end of the day to assist in wrapping the bake goods (and help eat some samples.) Come join us. All are welcome.
June and graduations go together. Please buy some scrip (gift cards or certificates) from the parish and give them as a gift to your graduate. A gift card gives your family member or friend great flexibility in purchasing something they really want; and you don’t have to shop for it. Of course – buy gas, grocery & pharmacy cards for yourself. We’ll be ordering more scrip cards soon so let us know where you shop.

Thanks to all who participated in the Saturday work day, May 22^nd: Kupec family, John S., Marge H., Max B. It was a beautiful day. They sprayed for weeds & bugs, built a tool crib in the storage building, sided the front south side of the storage building, cleaned the hall and more! John & Katie R. decorated the church for Pentecost. On the next work day (to be announced) come & be part of the team.
Request for help
We need assistance helping our not-so-fortunate brothers and sisters in Christ. There has been more requests for food, help with payment of utility bills, etc. coming to our church. Please pray about donations of food, scrip to buy food, or money to help those in need. Take action as the Holy Spirit directs you.

With graduation ceremonies upon us you can buy some scrip from the parish and give them as a gift to your graduate. There’s a wide selection of cards and certificates available so you’re sure to find something they can use. Of course – buy gas, grocery & pharmacy cards for yourself. We all use these retailers.
Thanks go to those who helped Thursday with baking: Al Z., Danny E., Richard M and John D. The bake day is not exclusively a men’s club – the women are invited too 😉  Kudos also goes to Glen G. and his niece, Anne for selling our baked goods at the Carmel and Binford markets on Saturday, May 22nd. We will need help Saturday mornings at the markets throughout the summer. John will be away to his niece’s graduation on June 6, so we need someone to run the Carmel market on that day. Please sign up. There’s another market called Stadium Village Market across from Shapiro’s on South Meridian. We plan to make a presence there too on Tuesday afternoons from 3:30 – 7 PM starting on June 1^st.

Maintenance Tasks
Thanks to Max B. who replaced the failed door lock on St. Mary’s hall on Thursday. He did it with the speed of Mercury on the same day we had an emergency liturgy for Tom Prkye and the bake day.  Pick out a few items on the posted lists on the hall, recruit your own helpers and assist us in whittling the list down.
