There were cobwebs on the fellowship hall door the other week.  I’m sure there are cobwebs all the time.  I’ve just never seen them before, because someone usually removes them before I walk through the door.  Who usually does this?  Julia arrived, and made coffee.  I had never even wondered who made coffee.  I guess I believed that elves arrived early and made coffee.

Join us after the worship service Sunday, March 20, for the Silent Auction organized to support our UMYF trip to Mountain T.O.P..  We have an evening of music with Jeannie Gleaves, an Excel lesson with Ned Egan, a Storytelling session with Emalie, and many, many other treats to auction off to our supporters.  Come to the Fellowship Hall and browse.  If you have goods or services to donate, please contact Gabby or Emalie.

Thank you for your generosity!  We cannot express how much we appreciate your endless ability to enjoy our potatoes.  We are hoping to send thirteen youth to Mountain T.O.P. this year along with two or three chaperons.  This is the largest group we have ever sent on a mission trip, and therefore the most money we have needed to raise.  We thank you for this amazing support.  Please enjoy our potatoes!
