COMING UP
Adult Forum will not meet on May 31. The final Adult Forum for this year will be on Sunday, June 7 with Bishop Price as our guest. Recently, we had a series on the Mystery of Faith—The Holy Trinity which produced many questions. We invite each of you to share your questions about the Holy Trinity. We’ll ask Bishop Price to respond to those questions on June 7. Please leave your questions in the office for Karen Burnard.
Committee can glean great ideas for programs for Holy Trinity from these materials.

Habitat for Humanity: Many thanks to a number of parishioners, some new, some long-time, for your growing interest in current Habitat activity. As most of you know, construction of a new Habitat house is underway at 106 Main Street in College Corner. The Miami University Habitat Chapter is paying $50,000 for the materials for this house; their student members will be the construction crew during the remainder of this semester. While construction is underway an important non-construction task is providing food for the volunteers each Saturday. Habitat also needs non-construction volunteers for the following tasks: family selection and support; administrative tasks; website maintenance; record-keeping; photography. Please contact Jim Lipnickey (lipnicje(at)muohio.edu) or Mary Melvin (melvinmp(at)muohio.edu) for information and to volunteer your talents.
