It is show-and-tell day at school, and all the children are requested to bring in an item that illustrates their religious beliefs. David stands up and says, "I am a Jew, and this is a star of David.” Mary stands up and says, "I am a Catholic, and this is a crucifix."

Warming House Update from Beth Lapore

The Warming House is now able to stay open through the summer. Some meals will be taken care of by Ely Chapman/Harvest of Hope. The funds for the Warming House will last longer if we can pitch in and help with some lunches during the summer. We have two generous cooks who plan to continue to provide lunch the third Thursday of every month. Does anyone else have time in their summer schedule to help?  You would be providing lunch for 12 to 14 people at a date that works well for you. Check in with Beth Lepore if you want to be put on the schedule: shimplepore at suddenlink.net or (740) 525-1423.

FUUSM office hours: Mon.,Tu., Th., Fri. 10 a.m.–2 p.m. (740) 373-1238, fuusm at suddenlinkmail.com or fuusm.office at gmail.com.

Rev. Hawbaker is at a ministers’ gathering through April 5, but is generally in the office Mon., Wed., and Friday, 11 a.m.–2 p.m. Appointments available by text or phone at (937) 470-4151 (even while she is out of town), or via email to revkatgreen at gmail.com.
