• PASTORAL CARE
  Jeanne Mason, mother of Sylvaine Moore, died, Friday, February 19th at age 90+. Notes of sympathy may be sent to Sylvaine at 4046 Holly Villa Circle, Indian Trail, North Carolina 28079. .

• MINISTRY HELP
  We are in desperate need of parishioners willing to serve in the acolyte ministry. Adults and children are encouraged to participate. Please contact Fr. Hunter if you willing to serve.

• SHARE THE WOOL
  A Prayer Shawl Ministry involves working together to make shawls, throws, lap robes, scarves, hats, etc. to be given to people in many areas of need. The items are made while praying for the recipient and can be given with a prayer as seems appropriate. We decided to meet on Wednesday, for bible study at 11 and continue crafting and lunch after. Our Share the Wool meeting starts after bible study at around 12:00 or 12:15 pm. Any questions please call Laura Lane at 758-7271 or C: 929-1071.

• FOOD PANTRY
  "He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor, his righteousness endures forever."
  
  Last year the number of children who sometimes were outright hungry rose from nearly 700,000 to almost 1.1 million. There are a lot of seemingly insoluble problems, but we have the ability to help with this one.
  
  We encourage parishioners to donate one can or box of foodstuff a month for the Valatie Food Pantry. There is a food collection basket in the narthex of the church and in the Main Hall.
