IPC Weekly Bulletin

 I thought I would start sharing our IPC Weekly Email that is filled with ways your can learn, serve, and worship.  We welcome you to join us in of any of the church activities.


WELCOME.

eUPDATE  PREPARING YOU FOR SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6
Dear all,  
Last week I suggested that you wait to sign up for Sunday morning worship at 8:30 to give others a chance to get their name in. Apparently in good Presbyterian fashion, you restrained yourselves so responsibility that we had some empty seats. So, go for it this week. It’s communion as well. Actually, we can now seat a few more than before and even though it’s Labor Day weekend, if you’re not at the lake or the beach, it’s a lovely way to worship and come together with a beautiful setting and not too hot early that morning. There should be plenty of chairs and distancing.  
Also, I want to let you know that the staff and the H.R. Ministry Team, along with a very fine consultant by the name of Alison Grizzle, have worked many long creative hours devising a staffing plan that will provide the resources for meeting IPC’s mission and congregation needs going forward. There are a couple of more process points to work through before I can introduce this to the congregation near the end of September. For now, let me say it is exciting and energizing for all who have been a part of it so far. Stay tuned…
Gratefully, 
Steve
