February 2012

Greetings to all as I write my first Chit Chat article. 

Today, I was ordained as an Elder to serve you on our church session.  I have officially relieved Audrey Winchell as Chairman of the Membership Committee.  Thank you, Audrey, for a thorough and dedicated job for the past 6 years.  I must have had a moment of madness when I agreed to fill her shoes!

I would like to start the year by thanking everyone who participated in the

“Take Down O’ The Greens” (or un-hanging!?) on January 8.  Your generous gift of time and effort is greatly appreciated.  It was amazing as the worker bees moved around disassembling, packing, toting boxes downstairs and storing away in the closet.  All this took just 45 minutes!  Whew!  We are grateful for people who were willing to climb up high, crawl on the floor and even work at eye level.  All of the bending, stretching and up and down the stairs made for a great aerobic work out and another opportunity for fellowship and fun.

A wonderful kitchen crew served 45 people a delicious sloppy joe lunch with all the fixins’.  The kitchen was gleaming and the church looked spiffy by 12:30.  I’ll say it again –Truly amazing!

I very much look forward to working with Lois Bauers, Trish Indermuehle, Rose King and Audrey Winchell on this committee.  We are ready to meet potential members, greet new members and welcome them as family members.  If you are aware of someone who would like a personal contact, please notify Lois, Chips or myself.  We are excited to get started.

Thank you,

Helyn Woolf
