Vestry Election
Sunday, January 8
We will hold an election to fill three vestry positions on January 8. Ballots will be marked and collected at both the 7:45 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. services.
Kate Bender, Stacy Feltner, and Fred Winters have graciously accepted the Nominating Committee's invitation to run for the vestry. Nominations also may be made from the floor on the day of the election. If you wish to nominate someone for the vestry, you must have the individual's permission in advance of making the nomination. The potential candidate must be known to the Treasurer.

Hiring Process Informational Meeting
Sunday, January 8, 11:15 a.m.
On January 8, after the 10 a.m. Eucharist, there will be an information session in the Parish Hall. The Rector and Wardens will share information about the process for hiring staff to replace Denise DeLong and Tim Dinger. We value the input of our members in making crucial decisions about future staff configuration. Please join us for this important 30-minute session.

During the month of January, the Parish Office hours will be Monday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 12 Noon. The Parish Office will be closed on Friday, which is the clergy day off. If you need to conduct business during weekday afternoons, please call ahead to determine if someone is available. Father Steve or Mother Jenny will often be in, but there will be afternoons when both need to be out of the building at the same time, Dee Dee McCoy has volunteered to staff the office during morning hours.

Greeting Card Fronts
for St. Jude's
We are collecting greeting card fronts (fronts only please) for St. Jude's. The card fronts must have nothing written on them and contain no personal content such as family pictures. You may put your donations in the basket beneath the table nearest the name tag board in the Welcome Center.

Did you request offering envelopes when you made your pledge commitment? If so, you will find them on the round table in the Narthex.
