Fr. Phil invites to join him on Monday evenings at 7:30 PM for a presentation of all the things you always wanted to know about the BCP but were afraid to ask.   We have several newer members at CHS who have asked to learn more about the text and the usage of this ancient, but modernized, book, Fr. Phil thought this may be of interest to others who have been Episcopalians for many years.

There will 4 sessions starting June 21st and continuing June 28, July 5 and July 12.  This presentation is part of CHSchool.  If you would like to join the meetings, please contact Judy Linger (Judy.linger@gmail.com) for the Zoom link.

Dr Stephanie Day Powell has graciously agreed to reschedule her discussion entitled “ God’s Dining Room, The Bible, and It’s Guests” about how the Bible came to be using the Book of Ruth as a model on Wednesday, June 23 at 7pm. To register please contact Judy.

Dr Powell encourages us to read the book of Ruth to or watch this YouTube video PRIOR to her “class” on June 23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4&v=0h1eoBeR4Jk

Dr Powell will explain how The Bible came to be specifically relative to historical events of the time. Please contact judy.linger@gmail.com to request the Zoom link. Deacon Michelleslie says Dr Powell’s class was one of the most fascinating of all her course work at Drew. Contact Judy Linger for the Zoom link  judy.linger@gmail.com .

Carol Crawford-Jones offers lessons to strengthen computer skills. Although a basic class could occur for up to 5 participants at a time, one-on-one meetings might be more productive. Lessons will be scheduled based on interest.

One 40 minute lesson should cover the basics in Microsoft Office Assistance/Word and basic Excel utilization.

To participate, you’ll need:
-either a MAC or PC computer with Office installed
-a prepared list of what you hope to learn.

Some examples of what could be covered-

1.  Basic Formatting
2. Cut and Paste
3. Format Painter
4. Lists, Column, and Table creation
5. Importing from data sources in Word or Excel
6.  Labels, return addresses or Mailing Lists
7.  Mail Merge
8. Basic Excel-simple formulas and tricks. 
9.  Powerpoint Presentations
Classes will be by Zoom and links will be sent  individually.

Inquiries should be addressed to carolcj@prolog.net.

Going forward the way FAA Ranks, we will be primarily MEMBER SHOWS
so if CHS Artist & Photo want to OPEN an FAA page (FREE up to 25 photos I think) are still FREE/AVAILABLE.
But we are hosting INTERNAL SHOWS right now.  The FULL IMAGES in the SHOWS are in the 1st link;
while ACCESS to LITURGICAL SHOWS for uplift, comfort & prayer are in Link 2 very helpful esp during covid,
connection & themed contest/galleries.  This status will be reviewed again 2021/Q2

From Whitney <wwetherill@gmail.com>:
Whitney Wetherill continues her class on Drawing for Beginners on Mondays at 10am and Wednesdays at NOON.  THIS IS A SLIGHT SCHEDULE CHANGE.  Each class runs slightly over an hour. An interest, a pencil, and any kind of paper are all you need!  She does this out of the kindness of her heart but encourages attendees to donate $5 per class to any food bank of your choice. Enrollment is required.

I would LOVE to have you and I'm hoping the new time slot helps some people to be able to join.

I want to send a course description to the people who sign up because it will be helpful if they can set up a place in their house where they can put a subject (like an apple) with a light on it, especially for the first lesson. Also, I'd hope that they can have their smartphone AND a computer or tablet so that we can send images back and forth by text while they stay on the Zoom call screen.

For the first lesson, they can get away with some paper that's at least as good as decent typing paper, a clip board or some tape to fasten it down, and an eraser (not the one on the pencil, just a kid's pink eraser). But a full list of supplies is below. These items are available all over the place, including Walmart, Ocean State Job Lot on 31, and online at Amazon, dickblick.com, and elsewhere.

Nobody should buy anything MORE than this for the first 5 lessons. If they like it and want to keep going, there are obviously lots more ways to spend money!

1 drawing pad preferably with spiral binder like this:

Couple of #2 pencils. If they want drawing pencils I suggest keeping it simple - a set of 4 to 6 pencils of assorted hardness is fine. 

A white vinyl eraser:

A pink eraser:

A pencil sharpener:
