Reconciler Update

Hello Reconciler Friends!

I hope you are staying dry on this soggy day.

Reminder: This Saturday night we turn our clocks forward an hour to start Daylight Savings Time - Spring Forward! Be sure to change your clocks so you arrive for worship at the right time!

There will be a banquet meeting tomorrow night, Thursday, March 11th at 7:00 p.m. at Riverchase UMC. This meeting is for those selling tickets and tables. It is not for those working in decorations, food, or the silent auction. We’re blessed to have a professional fundraiser, Dan Townsend, helping us this year. He’ll be presenting a plan for selling tickets. The banquet is Friday night, April 23, at Vestavia Hills UMC. Tickets are $100/seat and $1,000 for a table of 10. Special thanks to Amy Miller from Clearwater Community Church for agreeing to chair the silent auction this year.

Also, we appreciate the efforts of Wayne McCrary from ChristWay Church in Gardendale. He is doing great things in the clothes closet and working there every Tuesday and Thursday.

Census News. This past Tuesday morning, 18 people showed up to take the Census test at Church of the Reconciler. And on March 30th, Census workers will come to Reconciler to count members of the homeless community during our day program.

Mark your calendar and plan to join us on Palm Sunday when our children will present a special program during worship!

Our annual Stations of the Cross will begin from Church of the Reconciler on Good Friday, April 2. We’ll let you know the time in our next update.

Have you checked out Prayforthehomeless.org lately? The homeless covet your prayers and notes.

We’re making plans to update our blog at ChurchoftheReconciler.org more often, so be watching the site for more up-to-date news. If you are on Facebook, sign up for the Church of the Reconciler fan page!

Needs: we need juice boxes and hand sanitizer for the children’s department.

Thanks for all you do,
Marti
