Information and envelopes are available at the back of the church should you wish to contribute to this worthy ministry.

RECTOR’S OFFICE MEMORIALS – Memorial donations towards the construction costs of the Rector’s office are now being received.  Donations in the amount of $110.00 ($100 plus $10 engraving) will allow contributors to place a memorial on a plaque to be located outside the office.  There are twenty-four spaces for memorials.  Once all spaces have been filled we will dedicate the office in memory of those identified on the plaque.  If you wish to make a donation, please see either Rev. Mike or Rev. Judie.  Thank you for your generosity

CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS AND POSTAGE STAMPS – Thank you to those parishioners who regularly bring in the stamps and soup labels.  A grocery bag of each was taken in to the ACW office last week and added to a large pile of similar bags waiting for distribution.  Just a reminder the soup labels must be complete.  That means that the Whole Label as it comes off the can must be submitted, if not, the label will not be accepted.  Also, no staples or scotch tape can be used.  Thank you.
