VESTRY NOTES

The following notes are a summary of the actual vestry minutes, which are

posted each month on the bulletin board outside the church office. Parishion-

ers are invited to attend vestry meetings unless a closed session is called.

The Vestry met on Wednesday June, 12.

Commission Reports Finance – John Palmer Finance - Highlights from the report:

The year-to-date pledges equal $48,594 which is under the budg-

et of $49,612 by $1,018. At the end of April pledges were over

the budget by $880. The year-to-date operating receipts were

$59,012 which is under the budget of $61,133 by $2,120. At

$538. The year-to-date expenses were $76,751 which is over

the budget of $74,879 by $1,872. At the end of April expenses

were over the budget by $6,132. Operating receipts under the

budget and operating expenses over the budget which produced a

deficit of $17,739. Our budget is for a deficit of $13,746. At the

end of April our deficit was $16,592.

Building and Grounds – Dusty Hassler- We sustained very

minor damage in the recent storms. A small section of fascia on

Tudor Hall was pushed away from the building. We will have

this repaired in the near future. Work is still continuing on the

Nursery. Dennis and I are still coordinating a couple of paint

days. After painting is complete carpet will be installed. The

lights on the Altar are the only lights waiting to be replaced. We

are still waiting on getting a 2nd and 3rd bid for the HVAC repair

in the church. The donation amount for tables was $1,110.

Pastoral Care – Mike Dobbs- Mike was not at the meeting

and asked Rev. Renee for comments. Rev. Renee presented a

mock copy of an intercessory prayer list to be put up on the

bulletin boards. Vestry gave approval. The list will go up during

the summer months. Updates will be made at least monthly. Communication – Terri Denicke –Terri was able to put the

advertisement for the “Fill the Ford” into the Independent news-

paper and the St. Louis Post Dispatch online.

Christian Education – Nancy James– No Report

Youth Ministry – Nancy James– Our youth group along with

Ascension’s youth group have adopted a bedroom at the Dea-

coness Anne House that they will renovate. They plan to meet

on June 29th and start working on the room. The youth will be

selling glow products for the 4th of July as usual and selling the

snow cones as well.

Outreach – Jim Hollenberg - T.E.A.M. – Donations to

T.E.A.M. in May were 14 bags. The food drive, “Fill the Ford

with Ford” was held on Sat. June 8th. It was a great success. We

collected 112 bags of food, and $730.00 in cash for T.E.A.M. Jim

sent a letter of thanks to the Florissant Dierbergs. Jim will pick

another date in the fall for another “Fill the Ford” food drive.

Updates and reviews

Worship Committee – Harry Goff - The meeting of the

worship team was cancelled due to weather. We will meet in

August . Two new lectors have joined our ranks. They are

Nicole Nwanganga and Meridith Grames. Worship Lead-

er/Lector training will be held in August.

Fellowship/Hospitality – Carol Stout -Waterford Square

has our summer schedules. Cam Murphy and I are getting a

library together for Deaconess Anne House.

Parish Organizations - Holly Garrett - The ECW will be

lunching out during the summer and will resume regular activi-

ties once the program year starts up again.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

Thoughts on St. Barnabas’ Sunday- Harry was very

impressed with the service. Mike was impressed with the icon

that was placed in Tudor Hall of the Saint Barnabas. Dusty

was impressed by the energy and activity of the parishioners.

Debbie echoed the same feelings. Debbie thanked Rev. Renee

for the wonderful sermon.

Building Use Committee/Agreement - No report

Time and Talent Follow up- Nancy James - Shannon

Kiechlin has signed up to be a part of the Grounds Beautifica-

tion Crew. Five others have signed up to volunteer at the

Deaconess Anne House. Commissioning Sunday will be Sep-

tember 15.

Dismantling Racism Project- Dusty stated that Rev.

Renee, Carol, Debbie and he met with Rev. Washington.

While they feel this is a very important project the Vestry has

decided not to participate at this time in order to devote more

energy to other projects.

NEW BUSINESS

The Purpose Driven Church- This was brought to the

attention of Rev. Renee, Debbie Haefner and Dusty Hassler by

Clark Burton. We will invite Clark to the July Vestry meeting

to discuss this book by Rick Warren.

Prep for upcoming Vestry meetings- Debbie would

like for Vestry members to have their reports submitted to

the office no later that 2 days prior to the meeting. The church

secretary will then email the compiled reports to members.

Solar Panels- Dusty suggested that we get a proposal for

potential installation of solar panels.

Next Vestry Meeting – The next Vestry Meeting will be

July 10 at 7:00 p.m.

“FILL THE FORD” FOOD DRIVE FOR T.E.A.M.

“THANK YOU” for helping us help them!

Reflections from a few of our volunteers:

“The two hours I spent at Dieberg”s from 8-10 went by fast because the people were nice and happy to help someone in need. I was

surprised when one women asked if I knew Martha Forney? Of course I did because Martha and her husband, Keith, were the first

music directors at St.Barnabas. They were there many years until they moved away. “

Yvonne Jones

“The thought occurred sitting at the table with the DONATION TO T.E.A.M. sign on it that we all seem to need this "IN YOUR

FACE" exposure to awaken our generous spirit that sometimes needs a little push.”

Nancy James

“It was very humbling to see and experience the complete generosity of people for a cause they might never need but knew of

those who did. As Rev. Renee said Sunday, we all had our stories and each was special. God was certainly in our midst Saturday. It

was wonderful.”

Carol Stout

“Great idea! What surprised me most was when a customer was given the smile and spiel and then they responded with cash rather

than reaching into a grocery bag for a canned good. Works out great for T.E.A.M. since I imagine they have amazing purchasing

powers.”

Mary Anselmo.

“I worked the last shift of the project, and was most impressed by the amount of food and money that was donated. It was most telling,

and touching, that it was often not those who appeared most affluent that were the most generous in their donations. “

Ron Grames

“People were coming and going and more were aware of our project than asked questions. They came out of Dierberg's and handed

us a couple items of food, or even one or two bags of food. Many placed dollar bills in the covered container: ones, fives, tens, and

expressed concern for the children who would not receive their two meals at school during the summer. The community was

reaching out to help those in need. No guilt messages were necessary to prompt this sharing. Our being there to help the food and

money travel to T.E.A.M. was enough. Giving feels good. Some helping others when one has been helped at an earlier time.”

UPDATE

We need donations for the Intern Welcome Basket.

We have received a gas card and would hope for

more. We are in the process of donating both

religious and secular books to DAH and are looking

for “gently used” bookcases should anyone have one

you no longer use.

Many thanks to everyone who gave their time to our

very successful food drive on June 8. The outpouring

of blessings and donations were amazing.

In Deep Appreciation

Louis E. Murphy Jr.

Recently in the Forward Day by Day, I read the

following: “Most of us have experienced the holiness of

friendship and how it sustains us when life is hard.” Through Lou’s serious medical issues beginning in late 2012 to his final very peaceful passing to be with God

on May 20, 2013 we both truly experienced the

holiness of our friendships at St. Barnabas Episcopal

Church. I will always remember and be thankful for

your cards, phone calls, visits, love and support when

this period in our lives was very hard.

God bless each and every one,

Cam Murphy

CONGRATULATIONS

Congratulations to Cody Meeks, son of Lisa

Meeks, who graduated from Hazelwood High

School. Well Done !

******************************************************

Youth Group

As I mentioned in the last report, our youth group along

with Ascension’s have a bedroom that we are going to be

responsible for renovating. Our room is 15 feet by 14 feet

with a 12 foot ceiling and is in very good shape. We plan to

meet on June 29th and start working on our room. This will

be the cleaning and painting part of the renovation. We are

also planning to decorate the room. This will probably oc-

cur at the next meeting. We are planning a meeting in early July to get our room

completed. We are not at a point in the process where we

need particular items. When we get there I will let you

know. I want to thank our parishioners for their offers on

furniture and other items to help us with this project.

Dave Sinclair

***********************************************************

WE APPRECIATE YOU

As we enjoy these summer months, we say “Thank

you” to our Sunday School teachers, Bible Study lead-

ers and our youth Group participants.

Recipe of the Month

July/August

Lara's Onion Dip

3 or 4 Big Onions-yellow or white

1 cup Sour Cream plus 1-2 tbsp. more

1 cup Mayonnaise- I use Hellman's

salt- I use somewhere between a pinch and a dash

pepper- more than salt- I use at least a1/2 teaspoon.

Chop onions and cook for 20 minutes on medium heat

with lid on until sweated. No peeking. After sweated

take lid off and finish cooking the onions until golden brown. This is not a fast process so be patient. Add

cooked onions to the other ingredients, stir and open

up the bag of potato chips and Enjoy. Also good with

veggies.

Thank you to everyone who signed up to share their talents as Lectors and Worship Leaders for the coming

year. Please mark your calendars for Saturday, August

24, at 10:00 a.m. Current Worship Leaders need to

bring their Worship Leader Booklets. If you have lost

yours, please let Holly Garrett know so we can have

enough copies available. New folks, we will provide

them.

unless a,) the person is going to harm himself/herself, b)

the person is going to physically harm someone else, c) a

same from you.
