Antiques Show 2013 Needs Luncheons Chairman  May 29 (Gala), May 30th, 31st and June 1st
For many years, Wendy and Jeff Dahlgren have been in charge of luncheons. Not only have we enjoyed the delicious meals, but Wendy's spontaneous laughter, organization and music, and Jeff's calm attitude flavored the daily luncheons. Unfortunately, changes in the family business means they cannot continue. Please call Anna Eakins at (310-297-0701) to find out more about this very important opportunity. Be in charge of just one day or all three. Other ways to serve: Gala Committee, Afternoon Dealers Tea/Refreshments, Construction, and Beverage Committee. We cannot over-emphasize the fun and fellowship found in working with parishioners and friends during this very important fund raiser for the Church. Read more about our show here...

You are not interrupting our work -
you ARE our work!
Or just come to any or all of our services, and take a moment to sit quietly, light a candle in memory, or to symbolize your feeling, and let God be God - in you - for a few small, still moments. With blessings and prayers for comfort and love.
