Declutter

During Lent

During Lent, we are suggesting areas in your home to be cleaned out, to help declutter your home, free up space and prepare for the Spring Rummage Sale! The attached flyer and a couple of bags to help you get started will be handed out on Ash Wednesday during the drive thru imposition of ashes.The flyer and bags may also picked up from the silver racks found in the tub labeled "Lenten Sharing"

Each day of Lent accept this opportunity to bag items from your home that you no longer wear or need. We ask you to drop your bags off at the Shed in the church parking lot on 1st & 3rd Thursdays, 3 – 4 pm or April 7 & 8 for the Spring Rummage Sale!
