Work Day at CRC is canceled

The Children’s Rescue Center called us to reschedule the Saturday work day from morning until 2:30 in the afternoon.  Their pantries are open in the morning, and they have decided that anything we tried to do in the morning would work well with all the other things that will be happening that day.  

 Given that, the people I have talked to so far are not able to work in the afternoon.   

So, there will NOT be an organized effort from Grace that day.  Individual people may still choose to go if they wish, but we are recommending they call the CRC at 324-2529 before doing so just to make sure plans haven’t changed there again.

We will be organizing something at a later date, but this weekend isn’t working out as planned.  Questions?  Call Tom Brodbeck at 399-6257 or email him at tom.brodbeck@grace-nalc.org.  We regret any inconvenience this might cause.
