A note from the editor:

There are so many exciting developments coming up in the next month. And we have geared up in preparation. We are almost ready for the 2nd Annual Belleville Pride Event ( Metro East Pride). As we mentioned in our newsletter last mont, The Daniel McCree Foundation has secured its own space for this event.

MCCGSL SLAB CEREMONY~ JUNE 7th
As many of you know, Daniel was very active in several ministries at MCC of Greater St. Louis. On JUNE 7th (Sunday) we will commemorate a special ceremony to remember our loved ones, offer prayers in writing, or memories & well-wishes. Before the carpet is layed out in the new sanctuary, ALL ARE INVITED to join us, and write your thoughts and prayers on the concrete slab, as a time-capsule.

You don NOT need to be an MCC member to participate. It will begin immediatley following our 11:30AM Sunday worship until 2:30pm. at 1919 South Broadway, in Soulard.

Need more info: editor@danielmccree.org We can give you directions or caravan to the event with you.

METRO EAST (BELLEVILLE PRIDE) JUNE 20th (www.BellevillePride.com)
We will have some original artwork on display at this event, and will give away some selected authorized reproductions to attendees of the event. We also have other materials for distribution promoting Daniels Website, and Charity Organiztions he worked closely with. We are proud to join the Metro East Community Organiztions in this day of celebration, and rememberance for our dear friend Daniel.

We are looking for more volunteers for the PRIDE BOOTH, JUNE 20th. Volunteers will not be required to stay the entire time, but all participants (escpecially those close to Daniel) are welcome~ Cant volunteer? JOIN US from 2pm to 10pm in downtown Belleville.

EVENT LOCATION~ 133 W. Main Street, Belleville IL

If you are unable to make it to Belleville, we also have some of Daniels Artwork on display at the EMERSON PARK METROLINK, at the justBIZ offices. The Artwork will be on display until the friday before the Pride Event, and may be viewed Monday- Friday from 11AM to 7PM.

As the editor of DanielMcCree.Org, I have been amazed at how many monthly visitors we receive, and how Daniel's life continues to shape those who were close to him. This month offers several amazing opportunities to do participate in some of the good works we have accomplished over the past 2 years, in honor of our dear friend, Daniel.

Sincerely,

A word from the editor:



We can't hold back spring, which is reflected by our updates on the landing page for the month of May. Newly featured, a video from Tom Waits, entitled "you can never hold back spring".


Several things are happening in the upcoming weeks, including events with Ezekiel Project, an outreach of MCCGSL. Daniel was an active participant with this ministry, and we are proud to invite you to the next public event~ :"LOVE LETTERS", which will be a dramatic performance held at 1919 S. Broadway (the new home of MCCGSL) this takes the place of the Annual International AIDS Candlelight observance. (ALL ARE INVITED)


In the month of April, we completed our reservations for the next annual Metro-East Pride Festival. This will include a display of Daniel's artwork (not for SALE), as well as promotional items for his website, as well as an opportunity for our readers to meet us first hand, and see the original works in person. We are also proud to announce that Daniel McCree Artwork is now on Digital Display at MySLART.org a local art consortium, and online gallery.


VOLUNTEERS NEEDED~ We are actively seeking anyone who is interested in serving DanielMcCree.Org at the Metro-East Pride Festival in Belleville. This event takes place on June 20th. We are looking for additional volunteers for the Vendor Booth, and/or to participate in the MEP Board meetings prior to the event.

WHAT's COMING UP IN MAY??


For the Month of May, we will be updating the landing page, Featured Art Selections, and Playlists. We have veered away from some of our original music, and are glad to have a "throwback" to some forgotten tunes. We will also be focusing on updates to the Belleville Pride website, in preparation of the upcoming festival. In the next week or so, we will have the opportunity to memorialize Daniel, on the floor of our new sanctuary. Everyone is invited to join us, and write your thoughts, a prayer, or draw a picture, in remembrance of our dear freind. Following the ceremony, Carpet will be layed over our work, creating a time-capsule.
