On July 17th, the OWLS delighted in Mary Lou’s chicken

casserole creation, veggies, rolls and pie...yum, yum!.

Then we enjoyed several rounds of BINGO with some

very nice prizes provided by the attendees. Jean Martin

was the luckiest of all. She won 4 games!

August 21: Pastor Pat will give a presentation about his


recent trip to Georgia (the country in Europe, not the state

in the US). Plan now to join us for what we know will be a

special day. Sign up in the narthex.

September 18: Shelley Melewski will present one of her


memorable piano programs. Her theme this year will be

50’s music. And since lyrics are an important part of what

makes songs from that era special, some songs will be

sung by members of our congregation as Shelley accompanies

them.

October 16: We will continue our tradition of celebrating


Oktoberfest with the famous Oberlander preparation of

brats, German potato salad, etc. Then, did you know that

World Poetry Day used to be in October and poetry

day still is celebrated in October in Great Britain. So, we

are going to have our own poetry day on October 16.

We’re asking that everyone who attends bring a poem or

two (of any kind) to share with the group.

November 20: plans are undecided...but plan to come


anyway, you know at a minimum, you’ll eat a home

cooked meal for $5.00, get to visit with your friends and

have some kind of fun activity.
 

December 18: back by popular demand, we’ll play


Pass the Parcel—an English game where a “ball” of

presents is passed around and opened guided by the

starting and stopping of music.
