Our Organist
 
Our organist, Shirley Nordquist, sustained a broken pelvis when she fell in her home last week.  When I spoke with her last night, she was not sure how long she may be laid up.  We agreed that I should seek out a supply organist.  In the meantime the congregation and choir will sing familiar music a cappella.  Please keep Shirley in your prayers.

The Men's Group is an informal gathering open to all men in the parish
The usual "agenda" consists of meeting at a restaurant for food & fellowship
The Men's Group also provides leadership for various projects around the church
