There is a new Flower Chart posted in the elevator lobby for 2017. If you would like to dedicate the altar flowers to a loved one, please sign your name on the date and pick up an envelope. The cost is $15.00 and you just put the money in the envelope and place it in the offering plate. After the Morning Worship Service you may take the flowers home to be enjoyed. Please use the styrofoam cups in the back room to transport the flowers and leave the heavy plastic liners to be reused.

There is a set of plastic liners missing from the Altar vases. If you have them please return them to the church.

Note: There are Styrofoam cups to put the Altar arrangements in after the Morning Worship Service, please use them. The plastic liners are to stay with the gold vases. Thank You.
Please check to make sure that you have your coat. Three weeks ago someone took a black coat by mistake. The coat was a man’s coat and the black coat left here belongs to a women. There is a ladies pin on the lapel. Please check your closet and return the missing coat.
