| Women's Fellowship It looks like the Millers are opening a used car lot!! Nope. It is the gathering of women from the congregation for the monthly meeting. This one included a potluck with heaps of good food, requests for recipes and complaints about eating too much. Thanks go to Kathryn Grater and Diana Miller for hosting. The mitten tree will soon be up so start gathering scarves, mittens and hats to be distributed to families in the community. Information about the crèche display will be in the Sunday bulletin and the Messenger. Start thinking about what you have to offer for the event. Dust off you personal treasure and bring it to share with others. Volunteers will be needed for set up and take down and, as always, cookies, cookies, cookies. Our next meeting will be November 20 at 6:30 pm in Pilgrim Hall. Shirley Gogliotti and Marianne Templin will be hosting. Bring a dish to pass and please join us. |
