Preparation for Installation of Pastor Dana Helsing

Prepping for the Installation of Pastor Dana Helsing is so exciting!

At this point, these are the facts that we know:

Patrick reserved the gazebo at the City Park, and Rosanna made "reserved" signs to post the night before.  Apparently, the bathrooms in the park are open!

Patrick and his band, the trio "Borderline Blues" are DONATING their music from 4:30 - 6:30! (They usually charge $300!)   Thanks, folks!

Phyllis, Jennifer, and maybe Dana C will create the spot for the installation so that we can feel the Spirit with us!

Brent, Doug, Mark, and any others who are willing to help will move a few tables and chairs from St. John:  tables for serving food and chairs for extra seating.

John (Big John's BBQ of Moscow) volunteered to prep the chicken for the event.  We're asking families of the church to bring a gallon of potato salad (purchased or home-made).  We'll have a huge cooler there with lots of ice to keep the potato salad safe.  The church will purchase the rolls, paper plates and napkins, plasticware, cups, and bottles of water.  Devanie and Rosanna will provide the cake!  We're keeping the food simple!

Louise and Jennifer will talk about the music and hymns that we'll have during the installation. Louise suggested that we have songs that EVERYONE knows.

Pastor Phil Misner will officiate.

Rosanna created and printed invitations, flyers, and reserved signs for the event.

INSPIRE is sending invitations to churches in our Palouse Cluster and some of the churches nearby, too, as well as to Genesee Community Church and St Mary's Catholic Church.   In addition, they are creating banners to decorate the gazebo.

We could use help with "take-down" after the event, if anyone wants to volunteer.

If you can think of anything else that needs done, please let us know!
