In Sight from your wardens

A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who has pledged their financial support to St. Lawrence for 2015. As they say, we truly couldn’t do it without you! If you still have not turned in your pledge card, please do so as soon as possible and we will gratefully accept it. We will provide a full report of the church financials and its ministries at the annual meeting February 8. At the meeting we will also all participate in the first activity related to our involvement in the Thrive Program. Should be fun! Activities for the kids are planned, so we hope everyone will be able to join us for the meeting and enjoy lunch together afterwards.
