Our Flexible Fellowship is not Foolish!

Town Hall Meeting
Saturday, April 1 at 10:00 a.m. - noon
Meeting House

The proof of our flexibility is evident in a schedule change.

We planned a Workshop on improving our abilities to discuss Money and Pledges on April 1st, a Saturday.

But we recently had an RE session that led to interest in further discussion of the Use of our Space and ways to Increase Our Visibility. So topic changed, date kept and we are on for a Town Hall meeting to discuss these topics.

All are welcome. If you would like to bring a treat, Great! We always have hot water for tea and coffee, and cold water, available.

We will move on to Elmer's for Lunch and Relaxation. Reservations are made. Rev Jenny will make confidential arrangements for anyone who wants to join for lunch and needs a little help.

We may meet on a Foolish day, but we are much more Flexible than we are Foolish!
