Aug. 5

If you'd like more information about the community at Hope and our ministries, fill out a Welcome card located in the pew, sign
our Visitor's Register in the church foyer, or e-mail us . We'd also like an opportunity to get to know you, so
please join us for fellowship in our Parish Hall.

Bishop's Visit: A special welcome and thank you to our Bishop, The Right Reverend Rayford B. Hight, Jr. Bishop Suffragan.  May God continue to bless you as you continue to serve him. 

All undesignated offerings from the service will be given for Bishop High's Discretionary Fund.

YAC (Youth About Christ) Events:

  • Adult Chaperones Needed – YAC needs adult chaperones at all group activities.
  • YOUTH LEADER NEEDED:  We are still in search of a Youth Leader.  If you feel led to work with young people please speak with Rev. Bobbie.  

Godly Play helpers needed: Godly Play is an important part of our young students' Christian education at St. Michael's Day School. If you are able to volunteer on one or two Thursday mornings a month to assist our Godly Play teacher, please contact the office at 713-681-6422  or send an email to office@hope-episcopal.org.

Tricycles and Wheel Toys needed! If you are cleaning out your garage or find a bargain at a yard sale, St. Michael's Day School is in need of some gently used tricycles, big wheels or other wheeled toys (not bicycles) for students—your donation will be greatly appreciated by teachers and students alike.

THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS CLUB will meet every evening at 7:30 p.m. If you have diabetes, or are interested in walking and exercising with a group of people please meet us in the Parish Hall.  We walk on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and exercise on Tuesdays and Thursdays. 

And this just in:

HOPE EPISCOPAL CHURCH will hold its 5th Annual BBQ on Saturday, October 16, 2010 from 10:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Yes, that mouth-watering brisket, those finger-licking good ribs, smoked chicken and sausage with delicious potato salad and baked beans will be on the menu.    Your support is needed to make this event a success. 

Here's how you can help. We are in need of donations of slabs of ribs and financial donations to support the purchase of other meats and condiments.  We will also need your support in selling tickets, marketing the event, and in setting up the day before and the day of the BBQ.  There will be a sign up sheet in the Parish Hall.  Please join us in helping to make this annual event a success. For further information please contact Danita Perry, Cornelius Perry or James Ward.
