***************COMMUNICATION CORNER**************
Did you know we now have a “Sunday
School” that is meeting in Mathews Cottage on Sunday mornings before the
adult meeting??? Thanks to Bill Nunan,
we now have a program for children.
About our fellowship: As you
know, our membership is high in quality, but limited in quantity. Please come to Sunday meetings whenever you
can. More is better: more energy, more ideas, more hugs, more
discussion. Your participation is
valued. Hope to see more of you!
HELP
WANTED. Marian Kerr has a newly
renovated IBM Selectric and would like to know how to use it. Can you help??? She will pay for your time.
The Fellowship had a good year. We have two new couples as members, Marilyn and Ted Doty and Dave and Gloria Miller. They are all great additions to the Fellowship.
We paid our "fair share" to both the PSWD and the
UUA. We have a new 4'x4' sign on the
west side of the cottage through the efforts of Dave Miller, Miles Thompson and
Rich Johnson.
We even have some money in the bank - but don't forget to make
a donation by Dec. 31st and receive a tax deduction.
January 2001 will be notable for two headliner Sunday programs!
Debra Bowen speaks to us on
Jan. 14 and Rev. Bob Klein preaches and leads us in a Vision Workshop on Jan.
28. Be sure to attend both of these
events!
