Our 14 th Annual Parish Meeting
This Sunday: January 14 at 5pm
. Please plan to attend our 14 th Annual All-Parish Meeting this coming Sunday (1/14) at 5:00 pm.  The Knights of Columba are providing the dinner (smoked Boston pork shoulder & all the trimmings) and after a delicious dinner we'll have our annual parish meeting. 
. The annual meeting is always an exciting time in the life of the parish, because it gives us the opportunity to celebrate the blessings we’ve all shared together during the past year and to look to the coming year and see what new programs, mission opportunities, and growth God has in store for us.    
. Please join in Laura Dillon, Jeannie Lamp, Ellen Siegfried, & Jason Startt, as they rotate off the vestry. We will also elect four new members to the vestry. Currently there are four nominees standing for election: Donna Cory, Ian Crassweller, Don Swift III, Lauree Watkins.

Inaugural Rose Sunday Bake Sale Huge Success
. Our first Rose Sunday Bake Sale was a huge success! We had over 25 parishioners donate delicious cakes, breads and other baked goods which “sold like hotcakes”.  We even had homemade fudge from our very own Father Tripp. Thanks to everyone who participated in this new tradition for our Advent journey.  We raised over $700, and all proceeds went to the parish operating fund.
. Thanks also to our talented cookie bakers for a great first exchange! 15 bakers, young and experienced alike, enjoyed sharing beautiful cookies, recipe histories, and Christmas favorites with each other. Thanks to Gail Koch for the great idea and for the donation of delicious pizzelles and shortbread! 
. If you didn't get a chance to bake for this event, put our Spring Rose Sunday Bake Sale on your calendar. It's coming up during Lent on Laetare Sunday, March 11 ( aka Refreshment Sunday/Mothering Sunday).
