Scrip News 
I am sorry for any inconvenience that I have caused with the scrip program.  The good news is that I am restocking and will have scrip cards ready for purchase on April 22, 2012.  Then starting in May and moving forward we will be selling scrip cards the first and third Sunday of each month.  Look for the new location in the Narthex.  Thank you for your continued support in this wonderful simple and easy fundraiser.  Karen Durnell
