Wrap and Deliver Easter Lilies

Join members of the Pastoral Care Committee on Saturday, March 26 at 10 a.m. in the Parish House to wrap lilies for those in our parish family who are either homebound or in need of our care and attention. Please take time to deliver at least one of the Easter Lilies, which will be in the Parish House parlors on Sunday, March 27.
