Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 5:04PM On Saturday, June 8, we start phase one of the watering system upgrade for the community garden. Church members, family or friends who might want to lend a hand are welcome. Volunteers need to be at the church by 9:00 a.m. We will cut the driveway, trench and lay about 250' of pipe. All that's needed is a good attitude and if one could bring a spade or a pick, the rest will be supplied.

Thank you to everyone who has returned a pledge card. If you have not done so and need another copy, the cards can be requested through the church office at adminasst@faithdesperes.org. We would appreciate very much receiving all pledges within the next week. Thank you; your treasures and your time and talents given to Faith Des Peres are deeply appreciated. – Barbara Abbett & Kathy Sherrick, Grow One Sunday Co-chairs
