Thank you for being willing to prepare
refreshments. Please switch if needed.

Directions are posted in the kitchen. Supplies need to be donated- check what is already available in the kitchen. “Basic” refreshments are coffee, milk and/or half & half,
tea, juice, and crackers. People appreciate having cheese, sweets, veggies, or fruit, but it can be as simple as you like.
The Woman’s Society makes this schedule with people who
come to Meeting regularly and have been willing to prepare
refreshments in the past. We have not checked with each person
regarding dates. If you would like to be added to or taken off
this list, please see Nancy Marstaller. Thanks!

We are delighted to be the host for a “Playing in the Light” workshop April 15, 16,
and 17. Michael Gibson from Friends General Conference will be the lead trainer. Because our Sunday School is growing, we would like to offer another class for the middle school age
Friends next year, and need more teachers.
Please consider if you would like to grow into this wonderful way of helping children
understand God. Please contact Wendy Schlotterbeck for more information about this
exciting event!
