They will be distributed to children from low-income families prior to the opening of school in late August. We need backpacks and the supplies that go with them.

Volunteers are needed in June and early July to be with the children while teachers pack up for the move and to help with the move itself. Contact Connie Iacomini at (301) 589-1593. Summer church school teachers and caregivers are needed. Please call Kristen Brown at (301) 460-1806 if you can help teach our children one Sunday this summer. The 2002 flower calendar now has a permanent place just outside the office door. Please note that there are several dates in July still open for gifts of memorial flowers. Chrismon Workshop Coming Later This Year The Board for Church Life will sponsor a Chrismon workshop later this year, the first one since 1995. Chrismons are Christmas ornaments which are Christian symbols and monograms. There will be a variety of styles, from the very simple "glue and glitter" symbols to the very complicated weave of the beaded or pearl crown. If you are interested in helping at this workshop, please call Glenda Neal (301) 622-3948, or gbneal@aol.com for information. PLEASE NOTE: The SUMMER SCHEDULE for News Notes has not yet been determined, so please e-mail articles and submissions to cccoffice@christ-ucc.org, or drop off a paper copy for the News Notes mailbox at church. The Rev. Jim Todhunter, senior minister; the Rev. Linda Carder, assoc. minister; John Touchton, director of music; the Rev.
