Mark
your calendars for the 2nd Annual Quilting Marathon set for

involves everyone willing to donate a morning or an afternoon to take part
in providing a warm quilt to someone in-need. A sign up
sheet is in the Narthex for this event. In addition, the quilters will also
be raffling off a quilt in February. The drawing for the quilt will be
Feb.11 during the Marathon. Don’t miss this special time.
Food Bank
Just
a reminder to our members during these tough economic times. We do an
ongoing collection of food that we share in our community, and we always
keep food on hand. If receiving food would be of help to you and your
family, please contact Pastor Mark or Carol. We very much want to be sure
that we take care of all in our family of faith!
