This Sunday is ASP Sunday!
The worship service will be focused on the ministry of Appalachia Service Project.
In This Bulletin:
Worship on the First Sunday After Pentecost
Scriptures: John 15:4, Matthew 7:24-27
Many of those going on ASP this year will participate in the worship service this Sunday with music, readings, and reflections. I hope to see you in person (at Katonah UMC) or on Zoom at 10:30.

Giving & Service
Donations Welcome for Appalachia Service Project!
Donations are welcome in support of ASP. From June 26-July 3, a group of about 30 people representing Katonah ASP (high school students, college students, and adults) will be in Rupert, West Virginia, making homes warmer, safer and drier. If you would like to contribute to this amazing ministry, please make checks payable to Katonah ASP.
Hygiene Kits for UMCOR: Donations Welcome!
Thanks to everyone who helped assemble 100 hygiene kits for UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief)! And a special thank you to Kaylie Grieger and Michelle Dillmann for procuring the items for the kits! Donations toward the cost of the kits are welcome and may be made payable to either Katonah UMC or Purdys UMC.
Table of Grace
The mission of Table of Grace is to offer nourishment to anyone who is hungry physically or spiritually, or both. If you can help any Saturday to prepare and/or distribute bag lunches (using supplies that are provided by the Hudson Valley Food Bank or using your own supplies), contact Bonnie Hyatt at jesusfishlady@gmail.com. We are now serving bag lunches on the sidewalk again until the winter months.
