A Lovely Luncheon!

Another wonderful luncheon served up by Claudia, Diane, and Carole. They served bean stew, potato soup, and homemade chocolate cake!

Lots of wonderful company and conversation!

We were especially happy to have Daryl join us. He is recovering very nicely from his recent knee surgery.

Father Dennis, assisted by Mike, led another beautiful Holy Communion service. We continued our study of the Book of James in our Christian education class before services.

We had another cleaning/ sprucing up the basement day.

Carole and Rose Marie tackled the back wall of the nursery. They started with a stained, dirty mess.........................................

And finished with this beautifully repainted back wall! At a future date we will finish repainting the floor and then the nursery will be done!

Diane and Jim finished cleaning out the kitchen cabinets and installed tile underneath the sink!

Thank you to everyone who has helped with the clean up the basement project. We have one more clean up day in the basement left - we will pick a date soon - after Ash Wednesday.
