For the seller, garage sales are a good way to get rid of extra junk and make a little money as well. And because one person’s junk is another person’s treasure, buyers do well at garage sales, too. But did you know that garage/yard sales are examples of good stewardship? Think about it: financial stewardship: for the seller - making a little money, and convincing yourself not to accumulate this much stuff EVER again; for the buyer - saving money over buying new environmental stewardship: for everything that is bought “second hand” at a garage sale, one less thing is imported from China (saving fuel, transportation, manufacturing costs both financial and environmental); and for everything sold “second hand” at a garage sale, one thing is kept out of the landfill community stewardship: if unsold items are donated to a local thrift store (like Impact! Thrift in Norristown) that sells things to raise money for charity, even more things are kept out of landfills, provided at low cost to lower-income people, and benefit necessary local charities So practice your Christian stewardship this summer. Follow the signs to the yard sale instead of to the mega-mart and make a difference. The Congregational Council met on Monday, May 13, 2012. C o u n c i l N o t e s Synod Assembly attendees, Pastor Chapman, Denise Fox and Peggy Diefenderfer gave highlights of their two days at the Synod Assembly on May 4 and 5, 2012.

During the business portion of the meeting, the treasurer announced that the beginning balance was $7,928.30 with purchase orders approved totaling $800.62 and no outstanding bills. Under Committee Reports, Peggy reminded members to convey to their committee members to check the schedule for monthly socials sponsored by committees which is posted in the Church office.

The Worship Task Force will be examining the results of the surveys filled out by members on three Sundays in April and preparing the results for presentation to the Congregational Council. Social Ministry members will be meeting on June 5, 2012, to plan for the Peach Festival. Parish Life is sponsoring the sale of tickets for the Iron Pigs game on June 6. Property and Work Crew members will be mulching and planting flower beds around the church and Yerger buildings and installing changing tables for infants in the bathrooms which are located off the narthex. In other business: Council members voted not to meet during the month of August 2012. Council officers will be available to meet as needed during this month. Peggy announced with gratefulness the receipt of a contribution of $740 for the reduction of the Trinity loans from the Ladies Workshop. These monies were raised through the sale of the angels constructed from the used hymnals. The next Council meeting is scheduled for June 11, 2012.
