Grateful/Thankful/BlessedHUGE thank you to David Townsend who is stepping back from the Finance Team. We are grateful for his many years of calm, quiet, capable contributions to this team. We are also grateful that he will be continuing to contribute to our shared life together in other ways - they just have yet to be discovered!!!! Gratitude to Maureen Amos for laundering the towels used at the Maundy Thursday service, and Lorie Nielsen for laundering the cloths used on the ‘outside cross Easter display’. We are especially grateful that these acts of service were performed before we even asked!! ~ Deb |
