Please speak with Mary Anne Sylvester or Deb Lynch for more information.
OUR NOVEMBER 16 CLEANING DAY HAS BEEN CANCELED! The schedule for inspections and contractor final cleaning was shifted back a week. Therefore, we cannot clean or move into our new rooms until November 23. So please mark your calendar to help us make the final push on Saturday, November 23 as we tackle the kitchen, coffee room, choir room, sacristy, robing room, hallways, social hall, AND move all of the old chancel furniture and baptismal font back into the new sanctuary! ALL HANDS ARE NEEDED TO ACCOMPLISH THIS LARGE UNDERTAKING! Please sign up on the sheet in the narthex.
Sunday is the final day to place your Christmas poinsettia order! Both red and white plants will be available at a cost of $7.00 each. You may include a memorial or honorarium which will be acknowledged in our bulletins on December 24 and 25. Order sheets are available on the round table in the narthex.
