SEEKING FACE MASKS
"At some point we will be coming together again for worship in the building. So I am asking for a little help. If any of you have the time and the skill could you sew some masks for those worshipers who may not have one. We are not supplying everyone, we don't need hundreds, just some. Please, if you would, sew them it would be greatly appreciated. I thank you for your energy and time."
Masks can be dropped off any time, in the Church Resource Box, or left in a bag near the North Entrance. Thank you!
