Rip 'n Roll
The Mary & Martha Circle is hosting a “Rip 'n Roll” event on Saturday, November 10th
in the church library. Our goal of 200 rolled bandages for White Cross is a
huge request! Even if you can come for only part of the time, your help would
be appreciated. With many helping hands we can do it and enjoy some quality
fellowship at the same time! Hope to see you there!!! No previous experience is
required.
Bell Ringers Needed
The PY Council of Churches “Ring the Bell for the Needy”. Our turn to ring is on Friday,
November 30th from 9 am – 4 pm in front of Tops Supermarket. There
is a sign up sheet in the sanctuary. Usually we work in teams of two. Grab a
partner and sign up for a two hour shift.
Starshine Committee
Starshine is Friday, December 7th at
the County Courtyard/FBC. FBC will take advantage of this opportunity for fund
raising.
We are looking for
donations for the baskets we will be selling, a list of baskets and a box for
the donations will be in the sanctuary. Monetary donations are always welcome
and can be given to Cindy Ovens to help defray costs. All items need to be at
the church by Sunday, December 2nd so we have time to get the baskets
together.
Ethel Clancy will
again be making her delicious egg rolls and we will be selling sodas, water and
hot cocoa as well.
This year we are
asking for baked goods and Sheryl Robbins will be making her peanut butter fudge.
Baked goods should be individually packaged for selling. Any questions
regarding the baked goods, call Cathy MacDougall at 531-8390 anytime between 9
am and 8 pm. We have added pies to our bake sale, they
will be single serving pies. Let Cathy know if you'd like to help bake pies.
