Month of Sundays Outreach

Our Sunday Bring to Church Outreach is beginning to flag.  Of special concern is that we have not yet made our “Mile of Pennies.”  This idea originated with Ruth Jellison and I think it would be a wonderful show of appreciation if we could present her with a “Certificated of Completion” as part of our Pentecost celebration on May 23.  Please help with our “mile” and all our outreach work.
