May our gracious Lord grant Ruth eternal rest, and may He bless her family with the hope and consolation that only the Lord can bring.

PARISH NEWS

OWLS Our OWLS (Older, Wiser, Lovable Seniors) May Potluck is scheduled for May 18 at 6PM. Since May is our anniversary month, we will serve a catered dinner, so NO need to bring cash or a side dish. Bring your appetite and be ready to enjoy celebrating OWLS 9th Anniversary! May we suggest that you bring some item(s) for the Food Pantry? Gil Opherrman will provide a fun evening with some of the songs form this summer’s Muni Musicals. Sign up in the Gathering Space this weekend.
