June 2006 Welcome to the Pohick Post Online! The end of the School Year is now upon us, affording us the opportunity to celebrate the ministries that have enriched and enlivened our congregation over the past year. First on the docket is our Sounds of Pohick Concert, held this Saturday, June 3 at 4 pm, with reception following. Come on out and enjoy the joyous strains of all four of our choirs, as well as the Pohick Pickers! The next day is Youth Sunday, when our Young People will take a greater role in leading worship at the 10 am service (That is also the first Sunday of our Summer Schedule, with services at 8 & 10 am). We will also be honoring our High School graduates, Sunday school students and Sunday School and EYC staff at that time. Bishop Ted Eastman will be with us for Confirmation the following Sunday, June 11, when over 30 candidates will be baptized, confirmed, reaffirmed or received at the 10 am service. The Vestry will honor all of our volunteers at our annual Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast, Sunday, June 18, 8:30-9:45 am. Come on out and eat your fill! That will also be our EFM Graduation Sunday. Did we mention the Pinkard-Davis Golf Tournament, Brotherhood of St. Andrew Membership Dinner, and Shrine Mont Parish Retreat? Read about them all in the June E-Post! In this month's edition, our Rector reflects upon his recent pilgrimage to Taizé, while our Assistant extols the joys of keeping the Fourth Commandment. Our Jr. Warden and Sr. Warden issue their reports, while our Parish Nurse discusses the very serious topic of Clinical Depression. The 2006 Wishing Well has been posted online. Please review this year's list and "Cast your Coin" to adopt an item that will help us better exercise our ministries at Pohick. Please keep our Mission Trip Team in your prayers this week (June 3-10), as they head out to New Orleans. And don't forget to take advantage of the links to General Convention Sites particularly to make your opinions known to our bishops and deputies. Find these stories and much, much more in this month's E-Post! As always, please send your Pohick Post Articles to Lori Buckius at raebuck@aol.com before the monthly deadline (15th). Pass on any comments or concerns about these pages in an email to Dick Heintze at heintzer@pohick.org or the Rector at dbinder@pohick.org. Monthly Columns
