We need you! Pastor Steve has asked for at least 100 volunteers to pledge their time to help with the Spring sale. That means you only need to volunteer one 2-hour shift. No matter your level of physical ability, there is a job for you. Volunteer registration is going on NOW. Remember all volunteers get to shop the sale early on March 15th before the public. Sign up sheets will be located in the CLC, transept and church office. You may also email Carolyn Matthews at ccmatthews137@gmail.com to let her know your availability. THANK YOU FOR ACCEPTING THE CHALLENGE!
