Calling all dirt(y) angels!
We need YOUR help with our vegetable garden again this year. The Garden of Hope (the veggie garden in the parking lot) and the flower beds around the church and education building need planters, weeders, people to water, fertilize and tend the garden. In other words if you like to play in the dirt, we want YOU! Please call Dolly Chergosky (with questions or to volunteer) at 785-8546 or leave a message at the church office at 748-8118. Sign up sheet in the entry of church sanctuary.

Seeds of Hope Update:
 

The garden is up and going, and unfortunately being enjoyed by a variety of creatures. Most of the major damage is being done by the neighborhood woodchucks. We are working on this problem and hoping that our furry friends find other sources of nourishment. For now, we remind ourselves of the example of St. Francis and pray for patience while we think dire thoughts of these scavengers and set up safeguards against further plunder
