In Case You Missed It

Online Giving Made Easier!
Our online giving portal is now easier to use than ever. Giving, available at broadstreetumc.net/giving has a new look and feel to it, but best of all, it’s significantly easier to use—for those giving and our Finance Team alike! We hope you’ll take a look and give it a spin. And as a reminder, for the next few weeks, members of the Finance Team will be available on Sundays after Worship to answer questions and help you transition to the new online giving platform.
Pastoral Care Reminder
Pastor John will be out of the country until July 31. Please plan to direct all Pastoral Care concerns to the Church Office at (614) 221-4571 or office@broadstreetumc.net.
We’re Getting Ready for Our CRIS Family!
You may have heard that Broad Street is sponsoring an immigrant family coming to the US in August! We now have a wish list of furniture and smaller items, which we’ll be expanding as we learn more about our family: https://www.wishlist.com/user/BroadStreetCRIS. If you can provide an item on this registry, please mark it as “reserved” and email Jenni at cahillj2@miamioh.edu to coordinate (we would appreciate it if you can deliver larger items directly to the family’s apartment later this summer). Photos on the wish list are just a visual; we welcome any style of new or used items in good condition! And, please feel free to share the registry with your friends and family. To learn more about CRIS, visit https://www.crisohio.org/about.

Manna Café Needs Dessert Help!
Each week, a small crew gathers to assemble a nice, hearty dinner for the food insecure folks in the downtown area. Part of that dinner always includes dessert, and we could use some help making sure the desserts are well-stocked! Prior to Covid, dessert was often a piece of pie or cake, but those are far from practical as we continue to serve to-go only meals. If you would like to bake cookies, muffins, brownies, or other handheld pastries for these meals, please email the Manna team at mannacafe@broadstreetumc.net.
Sign Ups for Ushers, Greeters, Liturgists, and Flowers
As a reminder, for anyone (and we really mean anyone) who would like to assist with Worship by serving as a liturgist, an usher or greeter, or by providing flowers to decorate the Altar, we’d love to help you participate! If you would like to serve as an Usher, please contact Shelley Hobson. Sign-ups for liturgists, greeters, and providing Altar flowers are available in the Narthex every Sunday morning. Sign up for Altar flowers is also available online at bsumc501.breezechms.com/form/altarflowers.
