This Week's Bulletin .......... March Ridge Runner Newletter
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Newcomers Committee.: Next Sunday, March 14th, following the ten o’clock service there will be a meeting of all those who have expressed an interest in helping with the Newcomers Committee. In the broadest sense we are all members of this committee. Norma Darby and Pat Whipple are co-chairs and would welcome comments, suggestions and enthusiasm. All ushers are urged to attend since they will be an important part of this program.

THE FOOD PANTRY is appealing for your help. This week was especially busy and our food supply is dangerously low. Canned items such as vegetables, corned beef, corned beef hash, Spam, and soup – and dry items such as pasta, small boxes of cereal are among those items needed the most. Juices in individual packages are much better for our use than large bottles.

Flower Memorials: We don’t have flowers on the altar during Lent. However, this is the time when we begin to gather memorials and thanksgivings for the Easter altar. Envelopes have been prepared and are available under the flower chart in the back of the church.

We have discontinued a weekly service of Evening Prayer and Morning Prayer during Lent. Our Lenten weekday offering is the Soup and Study on Wednesdays at 7:00 P.M. See you there!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Soup and study.The focus this year at the Wednesday evening soup and study is the Lessons of Holy Week and Easter in Word and Art. We serve a simple meal of soup and bread and ask for volunteers to supply the soup. We need three pots a week. Please sign up on the sheet on the bulletin board or call the office if you are able to help. This is a perfect opportunity for you to invite friends to participate and meet our church family. This week’s topics: (March 10) Peter’s Denials and the Soldiers’ Mocking.

Is the Lenten Daily Office Club calling to you? Jennie Lou and Gloria start their day in the office with Morning Prayer and this past Thursday they were joined by Marcia Hitchins, Blanche Griffith and Tom Graf. If you haven’t already joined a group there is still time. Call the office and arrange to get the materials. Join with one or two friends – or pray alone. Check out Mother Reid’s Daily Office Guide available either totally in English or with some Spanish included. We request a donation of $10 to cover printing costs.

Saturday March 6 the Daughters of the King invite you to join them for their Quiet Day. Everyone in the parish is invited – you don’t have to be a Daughter to participate in this time for spiritual renewal. The day begins with a Continental Breakfast at 8:30 and ends with a light lunch at 12:30. The cost is $5. For more information speak with any Daughter – recognizable by the silver cross she wears.

Easter Egg Hunt :Our annual Easter Egg Hunt for the children of the parish and community isn’t very far off. We have lots of eggs but we need the candy to fill them. You can bring your contributions of individually wrapped candy – no chocolate please - to church on Sunday or to the office during the week. The young people of the parish, who sponsor this event, like to get a head start on stuffing the eggs, so please bring in your contributions early. There are great buys at some of the local wholesale-type stores. If you would rather not shop, you can make a cash contribution to June Bullock, Tracey MacDonald or Gloria Normann, who will be happy to shop for you
