To help decorate the church with poinsettias for Advent, people make a donation in memory or honor of a loved one. Their names, along with the donors, will be displayed in the bulletin and online for Christmas Eve. The deadline to get a name printed in the bulletin has now passed. For more information, email Scottie.
