                                towels please put them in the  boxes in the coatroom.

                                We are in need of volunteers to tend the nursery on Sunday mornings during

                                to hear the entire lesson.  This is not a long term commitment like teaching a class,

                                you can sign up for just one Sunday every quarter, and you may pick the date. 

                                The sign up sheet is on the board in the foyer.

                                few weeks, to give our current teacher a break, it would be most appreciated.

                                need of the travel size toothpaste.  Back To School Supply Sales have already

                                begun so be sure to watch for those and take advantage of the items you can

                                get at great discounted prices.  And of course we always need shoe boxes!
