Easter Flowers  This year the Altar Guild will provide Easter flowers for the altar.  However, parishioners are welcome to bring in their own flowers and place them in the front portion of the altar and then take them home after the Easter service. 

Easter Memorials/Dedications  We will still be printing a memorial page in the Easter Sunday bulletin.  If you’d like to participate, please indicate what you would like written on the memorial page (i.e. “in memory of,” “in thanksgiving for,” or “in prayer for”) and submit it to Gretchen Carr by March 29.  Whether or not you bring your own flower, you are very welcome to participate by adding to the memorial page.
