Caring Team August 2011

Syd Benson opened the August meeting with prayer.  The team discussed the success of the August picnic chaired by Medith and Elly; held prior to the concert by the Homeland Singers.  Eighty-eight persons signed the sign-up form and approximately 135 attended.  A large number of desserts were donated by members of the church – - many attendees commented on the quality of the food.  Thanks to Medith and Elly for organizing and overseeing this event.  Plans for the picnic following “Alive on the Square” were finalized.  It was agreed to accept a free-will offering for the food instead of charging as in the past.  Plans are being made for the 50+ Year Luncheon which is coming up September 24th.

The Caring Leadership Team thanks Marilyn Canfield and her faithful helper Don Canfield for being the Coffee Hour coordinator for several years.  Marilyn has been committed to her task and done a wonderful job of providing resources for the coffee hour following the 10:30 Sunday service.   We appreciate her dedication and all the coffee hours she and Don hosted when no one else was available.
The new Coffee Hour coordinators are Lorna Lindsley and Ruth Gifford.  Let them know when you can host a coffee hour.

Our next meeting will be Wednesday, September 14th at 7:00pm in the Church Library
