CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS AND POSTAGE STAMPS - Thank you for your continuing support of two ACW projects: Postage stamps and Campbell’s soup labels. The requirements for stamps have been changed: They no longer have to have 1/4” margin of envelope around them; simply tear most of the envelope away, being careful not to tear the stamp. The soup labels have to be complete and in one piece; that is, with no staples or Scotch tape.
OUTREACH AT ST. ANDREWS –St. Andrews Church and members of this Parish are actively involved in many Outreach Programs and Projects. A list is posted at the back of the Church. Lorraine MacLellan is Chair of Outreach and oversees a number of these projects. Marilyn Hamlin is Coordinator of Outreach and reports regularly to Parish Council. Please keep Rev. Marilyn informed of current Outreach Programs and any up-and-coming Projects. This will help keep everyone knowledgeable about how we reach out to one another, to our community and to the wider world. Many Thanks!
