Spring Forward!  Don’t forget to change your clocks on Sunday or you will be late for/miss church! 

The March/April Newsletter is attached.  Please take copies to our friends who don’t have email.  Hardcopies are available in the parlor. 

The next project for me is to complete the directory…that is my goal next week.  You still have time to send any updates that are needed. 

One Great Hour of Sharing continues through March. Please take the “fish” banks home with you to fill for OGHS.  Return filled banks by Palm Sunday, March 29th.
