Palm Sunday - April 10 One Great Hour of Sharing

This special offering of the PCUSA is approaching quickly and there is a tremendous amount of need in our world and our own community right now.   You can help with your monetary donation.  Please make your check payable to the Church and allocate it to One Great Hour of Sharing. We will also dedicate the One Great Hour of Sharing this day. 

Thank you,

Easter Flower Orders

The Chancel Guild is now taking orders for Easter flowers. We will not have lilies this year due to our interim pastor’s allergy to them; however, we will be obtaining daffodils and tulips which we hope will be in bloom for Easter Sunday.  The cost is $10.00 per plant, and orders need to be submitted by April 10. Please submit payment at the time of your order and mark “Easter Flowers” on your envelope or check.
