Easter Lily Sign-Up Sheet There is a sign up sheet on the table in the Narthex for you to sign up to put an Easter lily in church for Easter. The cost is $8.50 each.
Time and Talent Verification In the Narthex there is a compilation of the information the Stewardship Committee received from the time and talent sheets which were collected during the Fall Stewardship Drive. Please take a moment to stop and verify that the time and talents you wish to share are accurately reported. If the information is not correct or if you would like to be involved in additional activities, sign your name on the blanks provided. Thank you!
Peoples City Mission Clothing Collection The PCM has placed a clothing collection barrel in the Narthex for the months of February and March. They will be collecting two types of clothing – good clothing to give to the needy and unusable clothing they use to recycle. The unusable article can be anything of any material that is worn out, i.e. towels, rags, sheets, blankets. So clean your closets and help out a very worthy cause by bringing your discards in to church. It would help if you would separate the types into different bags.
