Lighting the Steeple

For the month of February, the steeple will be lit by Belle Fox-Martin in recognition of the work being done by the Berkshire Immigrant Center.
There are several months available in 2023 for you to light the steeple: March-July & September-October. If interested, reply to this email with your desired month and wording and drop off or mail your contribution to the church.
