A Note from the CPH Council
Dear Friends,
Along with about half the roofs in Tucson it seems, this monsoon season has exposed several major leaks in the sanctuary here at Church of the Painted Hills. We know that the roof has been patched several times over the years, but have not found evidence of the roof ever being replaced; it seems that that time has come.
Pastor Mike and Nancy Urias have contacted three companies to give us an evaluation and estimate. We have received the first estimate, but the soonest the other two companies can come out is September. The council will make no decisions until we have all three estimates. The first estimate is for a complete roof replacement at the cost of $21,126. It is the council’s feeling that the other two estimates will probably be around the same amount.
While our financial position is good at this time, this unexpected hit to the budget will obviously have a negative financial impact, especially as we have not been able to have any fundraisers for the last year and a half. Therefore, the council is launching a Capital Improvement campaign and is asking for donations to offset the cost of a new roof. Please make checks out to Church of the Painted Hills and designate “new roof”. Any amount you can give is needed and appreciated.
If you have any questions, please contact me or any council member.
Thank you in advance for your generosity.
May God bless you,
Nancy Traviolia

CPH SPEEDWAY CLEAN TEAM
Connie, Lynn, Sally, and Marlys met on September 11th,
And started the cleanup by weeding the labyrinth.
We pulled lots of weeds but didn't quite finish,
But what was there is now diminished.
We then headed to Speedway to clean up the road,
Grabbing the trash and adding it to our load.
A booklet of scriptures was tossed out on the path,
A Praise the Lord reminder as we cleaned up the trash.
Also bottles, books, a cell phone, napkins, and more bottles galore,
Were no match for this Clean Team of four.
We picked it all up and threw it properly away,
It was definitely a very productive day.
You can join us next month October 9th when we will meet,
At 7:00 a.m. to clean up the street.

We start setting up at 8 a.m. and begin making sandwiches around 8:20. We can also use donations of meat, cheese and bread. Thanks to all who support this mission with your donations of time and sandwich makings.

Starting August 30th in-person yoga classes will be only:
I will no longer be teaching in person on Wednesday or Thursday.
Online yoga will continue each weekday at 9am.
Dear yogis,
Transitioning back into the world has been harder than I anticipated. Many of you may have felt that too. Attendance has been low in the second half of the week and as we all start our yoga routine over again I hope that once a week will be a good restart for our bodies, minds and schedules. These classes will include gentle Hatha, yin, and yoga for strong bones.
*COVID Accommodations - Classes will still be limited to 12 people, Vaccinations are required, masks can be taken off on the mat and props will not be shared. Please stay home if you have been exposed or are feeling sick. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
If you would like to give online yoga a try I can help you get ready. Check out my newest offer:
-Private Home Yoga Practice Start Up-
1.5 hours in your home to help you create a practice space (in view of your computer, table or phone) along with a review of some of the poses you might have concerns about ($60). You can also add 2 short, 30 minute, follow up visits, to help get things working well ($20 each).
Online yoga has been a saving grace for many who feel the need for a regular yoga practice and desire the safety and comfort of home. Join us online for yoga each weekday morning from 9-10am PST ($8.50). There is something for everyone!
