| Gardening Underway |
Bill Dickinson and several enthusiastic Second Presbyterian gardeners are digging, planting, weeding and harvesting at the corner of Main and 51st Streets, KCMO. The Social Justice and Peacemaking Committee signed up for a few of the community garden plots made available by DST Systems. Help is needed. Please sign the clipboard on the credenza across from the library.
Also! The garden is bearing “fruit.” Help yourself to lettuce, spinach, etc from the table in Westminster Hall on Sundays. Leave a donation that will benefit local food pantries.

| How to Order a Flower Dedication |
|
Flower dedications are due by 8:30 a.m. Monday morning for that Sunday. You can contact Leanna Hattaway in the church office, 816-363-1300, to reserve a particular Sunday. A flower chart will be posted on the bulletin board across from the offices so that you will know which Sundays are available. The cost of flowers is $40 for one arrangement or $80 for both arrangements.

| Clothes Closet - Summer Items Needed |
|
Thank you to all who participated in Undie Sundays in June. Your generosity helped fill our clothing needs. We could still use men's new work socks at this time. We are also in need of men's polos as well as jeans and khakis. Linens in good shape are always welcome too. We are running low on books too. Novels and biographies are most welcome, but we don't need text books etc. Please no children's clothes or toys at this time.
|
| Recycle! |
|
Thanks to the initiative of the Social Justice and Peacemaking Committee and the persistent effort of Don Weeks, Second Church now has an additional recycling bin for the use of the church, church members, and the neighborhood. It is important that we use it according to the guidelines (what can be recycled and what can't).
The two bins sit side by side in the northwest corner of the parking lot. Please, when present, pick up any trash you may notice. Help keep the area clean.
Use the original (west) bin for PAPER ONLY: newspapers, magazines, catalogs, office paper.
Use the east bin for the following:
Aluminum - cans, foil, pans (rinsed)
Plastic - bottles (rinse please): milk, juice, soda, water, detergent
Steel - food cans (rinsed) and empty aerosol cans. Labels ok.
Cardboard - flattened; brown paper bags, paperboard. (No wax coating, no packing peanuts or plastic packing material.)
Phonebooks
NO GLASS, TRASH, OR FOOD-CONTAMINATED ITEMS

| How and Why - Electronic Giving |
|
Save time, simplify your life, and support your church all at the same time! Second is keeping up with the times by offering our members a new way to give. Our new Electronic Giving program is an automated program that will allow you to make contributions in the same manner that many already use to pay other financial commitments.
Here is how this new giving option works:
You authorize a specified amount of money to be electronically transferred directly from your checking or savings account to the church's account. You also specify the frequency of the transfer.
It is fast, safe, and easy! In fact, it is less risky than checks, as it cannot be lost, stolen, or destroyed. The electronic transfer will cost you nothing. Your regular Contributions Statement will reflect your gifts for your tax records, and your bank statements will provide you with a record of transfer as additional proof of your contributions.
One simple and easy to use authorization form can begin or change your electronic contribution amount.
The authorization form and additional information are both available by contacting the church financial office or printing it from this website.
