MARCH’s MONTHLY MEETING FOR BUSINESS approved on March 1 the establishment of a fund to collect and hold Friends’ donations to help cover the expenses of the Meeting’s 150th Anniversary celebration on May 7. Those will include a commemorative landscaping project on the annex lawn, a partly-catered luncheon, possible guest speaker and musician, and other one-time expenditures. Friends are invited to contribute by designating your gift “150th Anniversary” and placing it in a Sunday offering or sending it to the church office. Any excess donated to this fund will be given to help the Community Food Pantry.
PENNIES FROM HEAVEN $10 bills are available to Friends willing to carry them until led by the Spirit to share it with someone needing a bit of help and a reminder of God’s love. See Ron Ferguson to obtain one.
