- If you have not seen the improvements we are making in the Fellowship Hall, please stop by and take a look. We appreciate all of the hard work and donations so far. We are still in need of funds to complete the window treatments. If you would like to make a personal donation or appeal to your group, thank you for your consideration. Checks should be marked with “Fellowship Hall” on the memo line.
- Thank you for contributing to our annual Naomi Girls’ service project! Many of you have responded and Hope Lodge has received $540 in donations reported as of March 15. Our Birmingham Hope Lodge provides a caring and supportive lodging place for those who are undergoing cancer treatment from out of town-40 miles or more. Since there are a number of Hope Lodges across the country, please make your checks payable to the American Cancer Society with “restricted to Joe Lee Griffin Hope Lodge/Naomi Girls Project” on the memo line, so that your name will show up on the donor list. All checks should be mailed to: Joe Lee Griffin Hope Lodge, Attention: Tonya Zapata, 1104 Ireland Way, Birmingham, AL 35205. Envelopes (with this information inside) are available in the Transept and Welcome Center. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

- Technical support needed. If you enjoy working with computers, camera or sound systems, please contact Dan Shirah. We are in need of volunteers to help on Sundays (and sometimes special functions) with the technical support of the services. Your time investment would involve approximately one Sunday per month at this time after training.
