American Heritage Girls Troop 222 Invites YOU!�

Building women of integrity through service to God, �

family, community and country.�

�

American Heritage Girls (AHG) is a Christ�centered character develop-

ment program that offers a wholesome program for girls ages 5�18. AHG

focuses on providing Christian programming and introduces girls of all ages

and ability levels to new skills, experiences, leadership positions, and opportunities to

strengthen their relationship with God. �

If you have a daughter who may be interested in joining American Heritage Girls this fall,

please reach out to Molly Wade or Claudia Brown at [email protected] for more infor-

mation and/or visit www.ahgonline.org to learn more about the program. �

Fun, Friendship, and Faith: where God and girls connect!�

LECTIODIVINA�

“BestillbestillandknowthatIamGod.”�

Lectio divina is prayerful reading of a sacred text, usually the Scrip-

tures. It is a means of encountering Christ in His Living Word and en-

tering into a deeper understanding of the Scriptures under the guid-

ance of the Holy Spirit. �

August3,10,17,24,31(5weeks),6:30pm�8:00pm�

St.JosephHallandChurch.�

Please contact [email protected] or call 742�4837. �

This is not a bible study. Lectio is reverential listening. Listen for the still small voice of God that will

speak to you personally.�

Ready to share your love of Christ with others? Want to

help those on their faith journey? Love kids?�

We are looking for YOU!�

Our faith formation program is looking for volunteers for

all our programs.�

There are positions in our Classroom Model as teachers

or assistants, our Family Model to help facilitate sessions

or cook, and our middle school and high school programs

as assistants. Please reach out to Megan Licata at �

[email protected] with your inquiries. �

Thank you for any help you can give!�
