Tables are now set up for Thanksgiving Items!
~~~
You are welcome to sign the lists on the tables in the undercroft- or call Barbara in the church office (374-5200) and she will add your donations...everything from turkeys to mints!

We are so fortunate to have our "away" parishioners and friends donate to the 12 Thanksgiving (very-full) Family Baskets for H.O.M.E. every year. If anyone (local or away) wishes to donate rather than shop, members of the Outreach Committee will be happy to shop for you.
Checks should be made out to St. Francis Church, earmarked Thanksgiving.
Tradewinds has agreed to reserve a dozen turkeys (12-15 lbs.) for St. Francis Church Thanksgiving Baskets and all the usual items will be present in abundance. Non-perishable items can be brought anytime. The Thanksgiving Baskets will be delivered to H.O.M.E. following our 10 AM Worship Service on Sunday, November 21.

If you are at the church (or wish to come by the church during Barbara's office hours) come see the pretty tables, sign up for items, and take a look at the more than 40 shirts and socks which have been purchased with your Stewardship dollars designated for Outreach.
This Thanksgiving tradition has been ongoing for many years, beginning with the very special ministry of Maren and Will Rosborough. Here they are in 2017 headed to H.O.M.E. with the Thanksgiving baskets,
and a lovely, very recent, photo of Maren taken at Parker Ridge for a DownEast Magazine ad. Maren doesn't age!
