ALTAR FLOWERS are given to the glory of God by Carol Schlichting and Michealene Melus in celebration of the 50th wedding anniversary of Carol’s parents, Ed and Lois Schlichting.
A REMINDER OF GOD’S PROVISION AND LOVE The extra bouquet of roses on the altar are from the 140+ roses around our church campus. They are a reminder of God’s eternal love for us.
SPECIAL THANKS Thanks to Pastor Bill Fackler for his preaching ministry in our midst today.
FLOWER DONATION DATES AVAILABLE For the rest of 2008, there is still one Sunday in November that needs donors for the altar flowers. Please stop by the sign-up board in the Narthex and sign up! Flowers are $50.00 for two bouquets.
