Gardening and Wheat Growing Project
The wheat and our other garden plants are growing fast, both behind the sanctuary in the planter boxes and by the big palm tree next to the parking lot. Take a look each Sunday and enjoy seeing the growth from week to week! It’s pretty dry in the summer though and the plants will need watering to stay healthy and to keep growing. Please volunteer to water the plants this summer so we can have a full harvest in the fall. A watering schedule sign-up sheet is posted in the fellowship hall.

August Anti-Racism Training
Talking about race in our culture, in our church, in America, is one of the most difficult (and feared) conversations in our times, and it is necessary to heal our world. Presiding Bishop Michael Curry said: "[The] Episcopal Church made a commitment to what I call the Jesus Movement and a commitment to following in the way of Jesus of Nazareth... which is the way of God’s love in this world . . . and we are doing it by a way of evangelism . . . in a way that leads to racial reconciliation in our society and in our world." To create the skills for evangelism and conversations on race, the Diocese of California offers Healing Racism Training. This course is open to all, and successful completion fulfills the anti-racism requirements for lay leaders and postulants to Holy Orders. Instructors are the Rev. Jay Watan and the Rev. Eric Metoyer.
