Poinsettia orders. Cost is $12. The

The New Beginnings and Branches of the Vine Sunday School Classes will sponsor the next

We have arranged for a speaker from the Make-A-Wish Foundation to speak during the Sunday

disease.

Immediately following the presentation, the New Beginnings and Branches of the Vine classes will

provide a spaghetti lunch. Lunch will be served following the Assembly and following the 11AM

worship service. Donations for Make-A-Wish will be accepted during the lunch.

Thank you all for your encouraging donations thus far. We have already had donations of over
