The Estero Island Historic Society<\/a> is preparing a special March program spotlighting the history of island churches and the vital role faith communities have played on Estero Island. Volunteers are needed\u2026<\/p>\n

According to EIHC President Ellie Bunting they have volunteers from the Catholic Church and the Episcopal Church, however, to help make this presentation more inclusive, EIHS is seeking volunteers from the Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, and Lutheran churches who can contribute photographs, artifacts, documents, and \/ or personal recollections.<\/p>\n

Bunting said, \u201cIsland churches have long been gathering places, relief hubs after storms, and anchors of community life. We\u2019re inviting congregants and friends from the all island churches to help us tell this story\u2014on the record and for future generations.\u201d<\/p>\n

They plan to present this information at a public meeting on March 9. If they can get volunteers from each of the island churches, they will set up a panel discussion and will help speakers with any audio-visual needs they may need. This can be as formal as a Power Point or as informal as a short personal reflection. They have the history of all the churches and will share it with the speakers so you won\u2019t need to do any research.<\/p>\n

If you are a present or former member of Chapel by the Sea, Beach Baptist, Beach Methodist, or St Peter\u2019s Lutheran Church, please contact Ellie at profbunting@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This March presentation is part of EIHS\u2019s ongoing public history offerings, which share the stories of the people and places that shaped Estero Island. The program will feature a curated selection of images and artifacts, short talks, and audience Q&A. Contributors will be acknowledged during the event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Estero Island Historic Society is preparing a special March program spotlighting the history of island churches and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11566,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[209,211,210,10813],"class_list":["post-11565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral-headlines","tag-cape-coral-news","tag-email7"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
