CAMP WHITEBRANCH WORK WEEKEND
Camp Whitebranch has received funds to do a variety of improvements. To stretch those funds farther, they are looking for volunteer labor. The next work weekend is May 25-28, Friday dinner through Monday lunch. (The next one after that is September 14-16.) Food and lodging is free. The entire family is encouraged to come along. It could also be a good project for a youth group, Sunday school class, etc. Bring gloves, work clothes and bedding (no pets). On the bulletin board is a list of tasks that need to be completed from patching walls to trail repair to setting up tents and building picnic tables. If you are interested you can contact the church office, Pastor Rick or call the camp Manager, Tim Burroughs at 541-822-3511.
Elaine Entermille, church librarian, would like to encourage everyone to take a minute to visit the church library on Sundays. It is just off the entryway, clearly marked. There are so many quality books: biographies, fiction, non-fiction, children’s books, reference books, Bibles, etc. You’ll find something for everyone. Check it out! The library is also open during church office hours, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. |
Have something you would like to advertise? Submit them to the church office to buy, sell, trade, give away, provide a service for, etc.
MOTHER’S DAY FLORAL DELIVERIES
 Once again Calico Country Design is giving our church an opportunity to earn floral credit for our floral needs (get well, condolence, etc.) by doing floral deliveries Friday and Saturday, May 11 and 12. Needed are teams of two (one driver and one go-to-the-door person) for 2-hour shifts. Also needed are vehicles appropriate for delivery: pick-ups with canopies, SUV’s, station wagons, vans, etc. (no sedans with flower-crunching trunk lids). Approximately 15 people are needed each day. This is a lot of fun. Ask your spouse or a friend to go along with you and help make someone's day special—the smiles alone are worth it!
