Poinsettias for Christmas - A Note from Father Nick: I absolutely love that we fill our Church with poinsettias for Christmas, and I think having parishioners buy them in memory of or thanksgiving for a loved one is meaningful and beautiful. We will still decorate our sanctuary with these beautiful flowers, but we are going to have to do things slightly different for just this one year. Deborah Scearce, our fearless Parish Administrator, will have to be out of the office starting on December 19th. The only way that we are going to be able to have poinsettias this year is if we forgo the memorial list. We are still hoping that donations can cover the cost of the poinsettias, despite not having this list. If you would like to make it possible to fill our Church with poinsettias this year, you can make a check out to the Church and in the memo write “poinsettias", and we will ensure this goes to pay for these beautiful flowers. In the past we have asked for an eleven dollar donation for one poinsettia, but gifts of any amount are welcome.
2020 Pledge Cards: If you haven't turned in your pledge card, please place it in the collection plate or bring it to the church office. Your thoughtful gift will be most appreciated.
