We're happy to report that Melissa's book is doing well, and Melissa was recently interviewed on the Hallmark Channel in Los Angeles! Here's the interview: https://melissagratias.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/ HallmarkVideo_Gratias Joan Hester Byrd’s 90th Birthday Celebration Thank you to my Asbury Family and especially the Hospitality Team for a glorious 90th birthday celebration. Love, Joan Painting Group The Painting Group will not meet again until September. See what the group has created. FRIED & RO Thank you! Thank you to our Asbury family for all of the prayers, texts, emails, calls, cards, visits, book loans, and well wishes regarding my hip surgery. A special shout out to Mary Prokop who told me exactly what to expect during every stage of the process with encouraging emails and advice. I did get the extended warranty on the new parts and splurged on custom tufted stitching. Randy Bolinger In addition to Randy's heartfelt and funny thank you, I'd like to say I was BLOWN away by the Asbury Wave of Love we received during and after Randy's surgery. That Asbury-style transformational love and acceptance is just that--transformational. We are changed by your love. Thank you, Beloved Community. You loved on my Wildberry husband, and reaffirmed why I'm so GRATEFUL to be a part of this community. Susan Bolinger From The Connection Corner "Coffee Hour Questions" begin this summer! Beginning June 9, there will be a Coffee Hour Question posted each Sunday in the social hall. It's a fun new way to get to know each other and make connections through conversations we might not normally have together. Find someone you don't know, or someone you want to know better, and ask each other the Coffee Hour Question of the day. Listen deeply to each other and share your stories with each other. Sunday June 9 Coffee Hour Question: What's one of your favorite childhood summer memories? Acolytes Parents/Guardians, we are looking for more children ages 8 -13 that are interested in becoming acolytes for the church services. It is a great way for the children to participate and learn more about the ser- vices. There will be training for all acolytes coming soon. For more information and to sign up, please contact Gerry Harman at [email protected].

Contact facilitator Susan Bolinger 218.213.2127 Join Us in Worship on Peace With Justice Sunday, June 16 Peace With Justice Sunday is one of six Special Sundays within the Church and it is coming up on June 16, 2019. Peace can seem very elusive, especially in our world today. With famine gripping entire countries, ter- ror and war enveloping regions, foreign assistance budgets being slashed, diplomacy being disregard- ed, and weapons proliferating before our eyes, it can be easy to discount the importance of our role in pursuing peace. But what we love about Peace With Justice Sunday, is that it enables us as United Methodists to work for peace around the world. When you give to your church on June 16, Church and Society receives a portion of those funds. We are able to disperse funds in the form of grants to ministries that are doing this important work in many places around the world. In addition, we are able to continue to advocate at the international level for peace and justice. Mission and Service Committee "Multiply the Love 1-15 Minute Ministries Challenge" How will YOU intentionally spread Asbury-style transformational love and acceptance wherever you go this summer? It doesn't have to take a lot of time to make an impact, it just takes INTENTION! Think back to a time when someone reached out to you or someone you love through a kind but quick encounter. Years ago, when my sister Cathy was going through a difficult divorce, a lady in the grocery store must have noticed she was very down.

  • Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year 2020 (School Year 2019-2020)
    Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year 2020 (School Year 2019-2020) M. Ann Levett, Ed. D. Superintendent of Schools Savannah, GA 31401 (912) 395-5600 www.sccpss.com Savannah-Chatham County Public School System PREFACE More than 50 years ago, the Nobel-Laureate-To-Be Herbert Simon began promulgating the eminently sensible idea that instead of just spending money because they have it, governments should decide what they want to accomplish and then keep track of whether their expenditures are helping them accomplish it. In 1949, at the federal level, the Hoover Commission recommended almost exactly the same thing, calling it performance budgeting. In the 1990’s, Herbert Simon’s insight celebrated the beginning of its second half-century by returning to the stage as “benchmarking” – the identification of targets that a government wants to achieve and the continuous measurement of progress. This is a good idea continues to resurface. It just keeps getting renamed. Today we call this process objective-based budgeting. The objective-based budget process in the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System begins with the development and approval of the District’s Goals and Priority Objectives by the Board of Education. Each activity uses these goals and objectives to develop supporting goals and objectives for their organization. Once sites decide what they want to accomplish, they then determine how to allocate their available resources to best meet their objectives. Once approved, each site’s goals, objectives, and expenditure budgets become their plan of action for the upcoming year. At year-end, their actual expenditures will be measured to determine if these goals and objectives have been accomplished.
