[Highland Park] Next Sunday: Adult Programs Event
by Bruce Robison 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

Sunday, February 11, 4 p.m. @ St. Andrew's, an event in the continuing Adult Programs Series, "Focus on Jesus." "Jesus the Healer" Healing the sick is a major part of the ministry of Jesus as represented in the New Testament--and has been a major continuing theme of historic Christianity. We begin this Sunday a two-part exploration, with presentation by the Rev. Dr. Peter Ostrander, regional and national leader with the Order of St. Luke, on how we might read and understand the foundational Biblical material on this basic topic. Discussion with questions and comments will follow. All are invited, and a Sherry Hour dessert reception will follow. (Note: in April the Rev. Dr. Langdon Peagram will speak at St. Andrew's on the healing and medical ministries of the church through the ages and in our contemporary period.) St. Andrew's is located at 5801 Hampton Street, between North Highland and North Negley Avenues, one block south of Bryant Street and four blocks south of the park, in the East End Pittsburgh neighborhood of Highland Park. 412 661-1245.

Looks like we're in the market for a new water heater. We've got the typical 40 gallon, gas water heater now. Any recommendations for either the water heater and/or installation? Thanks, Kristen Tsapis

[Highland Park] Help Wanted
by Bruce Robison 05 Feb '07

05 Feb '07

St. Andrew's is going to be shuffling some of our administrative work this year, and we have a new part time position opening up which we're going to call "Financial Secretary." Basically this is going to be the person that makes deposits, pays bills, keeps records, and prepares financial reports. We estimate that the job will average about 8 hours a week--with a certain variability. Some weeks it might be 6, some 10. We'll need to have some predictability in terms of office hours, but this is also something that can be adjusted pretty flexibly to fit in with other work or family needs of the person doing the job. The person doing the job needs to be bondable, detail-oriented, computer-proficient, and familiar with basic financial management concepts. He or she should be familiar with spreadsheet software. There will be good training by our current financial manager and ongoing available support and supervision. A more detailed Position Description is available upon request. Let me know if you're interested--or if you know someone who is . . . . Many thanks, BruceR
