Finally, thank you to our fabulous bakers who will be making something for the Bake Sale table.  Please individually wrap your items, label them with the ingredients, and bring them to the kitchen during one of our setup times on Thursday, Friday or before 9 AM on Saturday morning. The more bakers the merrier, though here's who has signed up so far: 

· Shepherd boys (chocolate chip cookies)

· Laurie Kerns

· Margie (5 layer bars)

· Jane M

·   Phyllis Nixon

While this event raises money for our neighbors in need, it's also a time where we open our doors to our community - offering a smile, a well-priced outfit or a home-made treat to brighten someone's day.  We are keeping our Earth green by re-using or recycling every item donated and having fun with our fellow church family.  THANK YOU for being a part of it!
