Please be patient with us during the Month of January.  We will be painting inside and outside of the Church, and on the outside of all the other parish buildings. The recent rains have shown that the roof of the hall and rectory have been degrading badly.  Those roofs will be replaced. And we will finally be putting a new floor in the church. We hope that all the work is done before Ash Wednesday on February 13. 

...to one and all!
