St. Martha's Guild is Seeking Volunteers for Set-up and Food Dishes. We are seeking volunteers to help Friday afternoon from 4-6pm in the Activities Building to help set-up for our Memorial and Baptismal reception. Please join us if possible - we can set up tables, chairs, tablecloths, etc. The only other thing needed for both days is everyones favorite "finger foods". Thanks for those who have already volunteered to bring something for both of these occasions. If you are able to share with us - any finger food would be appreciated. Some folks are bringing their Sunday donation on Saturday, as well - just label it for which day! Thanks for helping to cover both of these special occasions. Please contact Debbie Hreha at jrea3@aol.com for more info.
