Parish Council Notes from July 2016
Parish Council has been enjoying the summer without meetings and is
not scheduled to meet again until September 2016 – the exact date is
yet to be determined. I anticipate this next meeting will be spent
discussing future plans for all four churches of the Parish. We will work
on an exit strategy to close out 2016 and discuss how to handle parish
business into 2017 as we see the departure of J.M. Paine, Carlton and
First Presbyterian, Wrenshall. Individual churches have been meeting
to formulate plans for moving forward and those ideas have not been
shared with Parish Council as of this writing.
We have included the picnic menu within this newsletter – please take
a moment to check it out and don’t forget to reserve your place for
this annual event being held at Historic Scott House. Your church has
sign-up sheets to make reservations and payments ($9 per person).
Remember to check the items on our parish’s mission calendar for any
projects you may be interested in attending or supporting. Laurie
Audette will keep this calendar updated as long as you share
information with her!

CLOQUET PRESBYTERIAN RAFFLE
The Cloquet Presbyterian Stitching BEE’s are holding a raffle. The first
raffle item is a fishermen’s hand-knit afghan by Fay Olson. It is full
sized, off-white in color and has a long double knot fringe. Our second
raffle item is a multi-color cross stitched Strawberry quilt, white,
double bed sized, made in the 1970’s by Jim Sheetz’ sister, Kathryn
Sheetz Nisula, and hand quilted by Jim Sheetz’ grandmother Rowena
Sheetz . The quilt was given to us by Jim Sheetz. The raffle tickets are
$1.00 each or six (6) for $5.00 and available from any church member
or friend.
The drawing for the two items will be held on Sunday, October 2, 2016
before worship service. Each item, the afghan and the quilt, will be
separate items, in other words one ticket one item. Each winner will
be notified by e-mail, phone or mail and arrangements made to deliver
it to the winner.
The raffle items will be displayed on a float that will be in the Labor
Day parade. We are in need of a small trailer and willing hands to help
decorate. The parade is Monday, September 5th at 11:00 a.m. Please
be in touch with any of the Stitching BEE members if you are interested
in working on the float.
Thank you to those who helped out by
bringing in items for the Rummage Sale. So
far the tally is hovering just over 350.00 and
we do intend to advertise a couple of high
value items online. A special thank you to
Helen, Teddy, the 3 Marge's, Dan H. Margaret
and Will. Many hands make light work.
