: Iris Henderson
(847/823-1828) develops a schedule of volunteers who
deliver the altar flowers to members who
are hospitalized, in nursing homes or who are confined to
their homes.
She also sees that the Easter lilies and Pentecost geraniums
are
delivered to many people following those special services.
I'm sure she
would be happy to have additional flower delivery people.

the congregation who are ill, who have lost a loved one, or
to let people know that our congregation is thinking about
them. Anyone is invited to join the group. For more
information contact Amy Burrows via
