From the Dean On Sunday the Dean announced a book he recommended called All Will Be Well by Julian of Norwich. He noted many people interested but took down no names. (This happens on Sunday when you are juggling a lot of information). If you are interested in this book please email the office to get on the list. The cost of the book is $15.00 From the Thrift Store
If you are making a donation to the Thrift Store -Could everyone please clearly mark their clothing donations with the intended recipients as this year there is some confusion as to where they are meant to go. This is the time where people drop donations off to Out of the Cold and they can get a bit confusing to sort. We want to make sure the donations go where they are intended to go.
