Quilts For Peirce Hall
Michelle Miller is creating 6 quilts of her own design for Peirce Hall. All will have center panels that highlight Bible verses. For this particular quilt, she purchased the center panel from an artist who does screen printing, and then designed the Celtic knot work that accents the panel.

Fulfill Your Pledge With Tax Free Dollars
If you have an IRA, IRS rules allow you to make charitable contributions through your financial institution directly to your charities. Under the IRS program Qualified Charitable Distributions, these dollars count towards your Minimum Distribution Requirement but are not taxed as income. This could be a tax saving to you. Contact your financial institution for further information as not all retirement savings accounts are eligible.

S.HA.R.E.: We donate food to this ministry that provides for those in need in our community. The S.H.A.R.E pantry is run primarily by Federated Church with organizations across our community donating food. It is currently open three days a week. Phyllis Smith will be taking in our donations on a regular basis. Please bring your contributions of canned and packaged, easy to prepare, foods for the bin labeled S.HA.R.E.. If you are bringing canned goods, please bring those that open with pull tops if at all possible.

Recycling: Bring your CRV bottle and can recyclables to church. Place them in the bins in the Robing Room (that area outside the Parish Hall bathroom). Boyd Roberts will collect them and the funds from the returns go to the church.

Discretionary Fund: Rev. Debra maintains a Discretionary Fund that she can use to provide assistance as needed. She can provide emergency assistance for food, transportation, and help with medical bills. The Vestry provides some funding for this every year, but additional donations would expand what Rev. Debra can do during the year. Donations may be made to Church of Our Saviour, with "Discretionary Fund" in the memo line.
