EYEGLASSES NEEDED: MOST Ministries will be taking a Mission Trip
to Nicaragua next June. The people there
have a great need for eyeglasses - adult, children, non-prescription
sunglasses, and over-the-counter reading glasses. Glasses cases would also be appreciated. Jean Voelker has put a box in the narthex for
this collection and will see that the glasses get to someone going on this
trip. Your donations will bring sight!
CHURCH HISTORY: In January of 1932, the interior of the
church was re-decorated. It was
colorful, with strips 4-5 feet wide that were panels of different shades of
blues and roses. There were designs that started at the top of the
windows. At the center of the ceiling,
floral and leaf designs criss-crossed.
There was also a border that was chair rail height. There werefour bowl lights suspended from the
ceiling. Those lights have since been
replaced.
