| Happy Ground Hog Day! 2025 is off to a great start! Sunday School is back in full swing and the children are enjoying learning about Jesus and his love for us. Harvest Sunday will next take place on February 2nd so we hope the entire congregation as well as the Sunday School students will help to fill the shelves at St. Mary’s Food Pantry with their donations. Since the Yorktown Food Pantry has closed, it’s especially important to help stock St. Mary’s to support those who are hungry and need our help. On Sunday, February 2nd, the Sunday School children will also be treated to a special lesson about the church presented by Cyndi Clark. She always does a great job, and the children enjoy her presentations so please try to attend. On February 9th, we will again try to have “Bring a Friend to Sunday School.” If you have a friend who would enjoy visiting our Sunday School, please bring him/her along. Each of you will receive a special treat! St. Andrew’s also will celebrate Scout Sunday on February 9th so if you are involved in any type of scout troop, please wear your uniform so we can recognize your involvement. Sunday School will not be in session on Sunday, February 16th as we celebrate President’s Day weekend but we will resume the following Sunday, February 23rd. Ash Wednesday is on March 5th so we will be distributing the Lenten boxes to the Sunday School children on Sunday, March 2nd. Please save your loose change so that we can fill those boxes and the kids will then choose where to donate the money again this year. For the past several years, we have purchased animals, mosquito nets, and water through the ELCA catalog and the kids really enjoyed that! As always, we welcome anyone who would like to teach or help with Sunday School, do a special lesson or craft with the children, or assist in any way. Please reach out to me with any questions at [email protected] or via cell at 914-715-9546. We look forward to seeing everyone in Sunday School each week! God Bless, Sue Epting, Sunday School Coordinator |
