INFORMATION & ANNOUNCEMENTS

We are excited to announce that Ken Carrington will be commissioned as Director of Children and Youth during the service. Children's Time and offering during worship will start back this week as well.

The nursery is still available for little ones, but we ask that those who can start out in the service to join us in worship until Children's Time, after which children 6 and under are welcome to go to the nursery. Children over the age of 3 are asked to wear a mask while indoors.

HANDS OF CHRIST SPECIAL OFFERING – Second Presbyterian has been a part of the Hands of Christ team since 2016, usually serving as the downtown distribution site, where we’ve greeted hundreds of children to pick out clothing and supplies before school starts. This year’s distribution will again be touchless and bags will be packed and delivered to the schools. Volunteer details to come later this summer. Please join us in supporting this wonderful ministry through our special offering this week. Hands of Christ could not exist without your help. More at www.2ndpc.org/give.
