THE EASTER OFFERING: This year the first $2000 of the Easter offering will go to Orphans International, to aid specifically their work in Haiti. As you know, this parish has supported the work of this agency over the past several years. Our own Jim Luce, raised in this parish (ask Barbara McKinstry for stories of Jim’s Sunday School career!), is the head and founder of this now-international aide agency. Once we have reached the $2000 level, any amount over that will be divided equally between the Family Resource Center as part of our on-going support of that local agency, and Orphans International. So, for example, if the total Easter offering were to reach $4000 (as the Christmas offering actually did!), Orphans would receive $3000 and the FRC would receive $1000.

We know this is not any easy time for many of us, but let’s remember those who have so much less than we do, and reach out to them at this time of awakening

ADULT FORUM: We continue our series on Aging and Dying with Grace. Today Patricia Gaines, Community Outreach Coordinator for Hospice of Cincinnati and Hamilton talks with us about Hospice. Karen Burnard will lead a conversation about planning for your “celebration of life” service. Next Sunday, Cynthia Kelley will be our speaker on the topic of Grieving.

Adult Forum meets at 9:15 am. Coffee and snacks are available at 9 am.

FILM: In Whose Honor an award wining documentary film on the usage of Native American Mascots will be shown at 7 pm in the undercroft, Sunday March 21. Childcare will be provided along with snacks. The Social Justice Commission is showing this film as this is presently a local and national issue. Locally an effort is underway to change the Talawanda High School mascot from The Braves to one with out reference to persons, their ethnicity or gender. Nationally the State of Wisconsin has recently outlawed the usage of Native American Mascots for High School sports teams and imposed a fine for those schools not changing their mascot. Following the film a brief discussion will follow featuring Graduate Student in Kinesiology and Health Jessica Toglia and Rev. Fred Shaw Pastor of the Oxford United Methodist Church and Native American Indian.

CHOCOLATE FEST: Love Your Neighbor: Bake Chocolate! ECSF’s beloved Chocolate Fest is set April 17 at St. Thomas, Terrace Park.

Love Your Neighbor: Bake Chocolate! ECSF’s beloved Chocolate Fest is set April 17 at St. Thomas, Terrace Park. This is an unabashedly scrumptious Eastertide fundraiser with all proceeds going into grants to churches aiding people in need throughout the Diocese.

Hear ye: if ye bake well or have stuff, your talents and products are holy and needed now.
Here are three ways you can Do Good Through Chocolate:
• Donate a silent auction item by March 22 or have your business sponsor the event
• Enter the bake-off by April 5 with your favorite chocolate recipe
• Come, munch, and bid!

Celebrity chocolatiers Chip and Debbie Graeter, Randy Young of Aglamesis, and Matt Madison of Madisono’s Gelato – all Episcopalians – will award three grand prizes and we will also have the hotly-contested People’s Choice referendum with many winners. Get ready for fierce competition among congregations voting early and often for their contestants. But the Fest committee is claiming the high moral ground through teamwork. Terri Moorhead of St. Thomas serves as this year’s Fest Chair, aided by Bill and Margaret Nelsen of St. Barnabas, Peggy Lobes of Christ Church Glendale, Elizabeth Grover of Redeemer, Tom Cavill and Lou Scott of St. Thomas.

New this year: our auction goes online! The auction website is already live and we are adding new items every day for people to browse. Businesses donating goods and services have the potential for thousands of views over the next few weeks. Sponsor logos will be posted with a click-through to your company website.

You can easily enter, contribute to or visit the auction, or order tickets through ECSF’s website www.ECSFsouthernohio.org Just click on the banner with the gorgeous cake. Or call ECSF’s Ariel Miller at 513-221-0547.
