Restoration Karen Gagliano 569-6249 Kenny Kraemer 986-0274 Message from the President Italian American Club of Palm Coast Members- My first month has been both fun AND challenging! Our old equipment really put us to the test – a kitchen cooler and two air conditioners required service, our kitchen vent system shorted out and a sink in our dishwashing station sprung a leak! A very special Thank You to Lou Monico for always being there to help and advise when these emergencies pop up. I don’t know what I would do without you! That’s not to mention the constant maintenance issues that needed attention – thank you to Dominick Matra, Chris Milnes and John Pollinger for stepping up to help. Your skills are invaluable! In spite of the challenges, we had a lot of FUN, too! The Installation Dinner Dance was beautiful, thanks to Mickey Logemann, Maureen DeGiulio and their talented volunteers. Chef Mike, our staff and a couple special volunteers, did a great job preparing a delicious dinner, Tim Rippey provided terrific entertainment, as always, and Joe Galianese flawlessly installed our incoming board. Thank you, also, to Karen Gagliano, for her hard work behind-the-scenes, creating beautiful flyers and programs. Bittersweet as it was saying good bye to our outgoing President Chuck, I am so honored to be the recipient of a custom “stool”, created by our own Dominick Papa! I love it and will use it with pride! Our Father’s Day Celebration was such an enjoyable event. We always love it when our wonderful Heritage Committee volunteers take a turn in the kitchen and this time we were treated to delicious meatballs and homemade cookies. Super social directors Jane Monico and Pat Rizzo decorated to make all our “dads” very happy and Vince Cautero provided beautiful music. Ending the month, Soul Fire performed for our June Pub night and we had a good turnout, in spite of our A/C troubles. If you haven’t attended one of our special events, please consider joining us. A lot of hard work goes into making these events special and I think you will enjoy them – I know I do! We have exciting summer months ahead, beginning with our Salute to America July dinner dance. Tickets are on sale now so call the office or stop by weekdays 9 – 3 to purchase them. And don’t forget, every hot, muggy Tuesday, you could be with us enjoying dinner, drinks, Texas Hold’em, line dancing and of course, our popular karaoke with John and Sal in our air conditioned club! Our King of Spades pot is climbing, too, so come check it out. I love this club and our members and look forward to seeing every one of you at the club! We’ve had a lot of illness and surgeries this past month. Have a blessed month, stay safe and keep our members in your prayers.

    Sunday, September 24 th 1-3pm Glenwood Lake Pavilion Please bring your own table setting, a dish to pass and maybe a lawn chair! The deacons will provide cold beverages. Our Sunday Worship during July and August begins at 9:30 am We return to our regularly scheduled worship schedule on Sunday September 10 at 11:00am. During July and August the church office is open (usually) Tues and Wed 9-12. In September, the church office will (usually) be open Monday through Thursday, 9-2. Members and Friends First Presbyterian Church, Medina Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, Grace to you, and peace! I greet you with the love of Christ and with great thanksgiving for the blessing of being called to serve with you, here at First Presbyterian Church, Medina. It has been wonderful serving as Summer pulpit supply over that last two months. My wife Sherrie and I, and our three youngest children, Gracie Mae (10 years old), Kaleela Ayanna (17 years old), and Adelia Rose (18 years old), have been welcomed warmly by the Congregation this Summer. As you read this letter, we will have settled into our life in Medina, living in the Manse at 300 Park Avenue, and getting acquainted in the community. Let me share some of my journey on my way to Medina First Presbyterian. After earlier work as a college and university teacher, physician, and sheet metal worker, I studied at Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, and was mentored in the Presbytery of Western New York, and ordained in the Presbytery of Genesee Valley.

  • January/February 2018
    Our Sunday Worship begins at 11:00 am Sunday School for youth and children begins with the worship service. The church office is (usually) open Monday through Thursday 9-2. Dear Sisters and Brothers, From the midst of Christmastide, I bring you wishes for a Merry Christmas Season, and bright hopes for the New Year, from Sherrie, Adelia, Kaleela, and Gracie, and the whole Wilkinson Family. It is our prayer that this letter finds you with the joy of the birth of the Christ child renewed in your heart, soul and mind, again. As we shared in Sunday Service on New Year’s Eve, the spirit of Christmas comes alive in the ancient rhyme about King Wenceslaus, who, like our God, provided a break from the wind and cold to his page, as they reached out to a neighbor, a stranger in need. Just as the angels first called to the shepherds in the field, the ordinary ones, with the good news of Christ’s coming, we are called to opt for the poor, for in doing so, “we shall find blessing. As we moved through the Twelve Days of Christmas, keeping in mind the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, and the three middle verses of the carol, “We, Three Kings”, using the last three days of Christmas to ask ourselves, “what of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, do we bring to the Bethlehem manger of our hearts, we were enabled to reflect in our spiritual life at home on the precious gift of reflection and renewal provided by the days of Christmastide.

  • Our Sunday Worship Begins at 11:00 Am Sunday School for Youth and Children Begins with the Worship Service
    Our Sunday Worship begins at 11:00 am Sunday School for youth and children begins with the worship service. The church office is (usually) open Monday through Thursday 9-2. Dear Saints and Friends of First Presbyterian Church of Medina, Has this ever happened to you? You have a brand new car, it has all the “bells and whistles,” and it has a powerful V-8 engine. You get in it to go somewhere, but the car doesn’t move. You sit and wonder what could be wrong, then you pop the hood and look at the engine, hoping to find something obviously amiss that you can fix and that’ll get the engine started, but there’s nothing wrong that you can see. The engine won’t start and still the car does nothing. All that power, all the capabilities of taking you places, but the car won’t run. All the things you could see and do if only you could get this new car running. And you think: what good is this thing I’ve invested so much into? It doesn’t improve my life at all! But then, just out of idle frustration, you turn on the ignition. The car starts! The engine roars to life! You put it in gear and start driving towards unlimited opportunities and possibilities. And you think: this is how it’s supposed to work! Well, if you’ve ever driven a car, you know enough to turn on the ignition to start the engine. You’re probably thinking: I’m smart enough to know the ignition has to be turned on in order to get the car to operate properly.
