To celebrate the upcoming Christmas season, we are organizing a church luncheon on Sunday Dec. 10th after Church (there will be a shorter service on this day to accommodate the lunch). Jean and Bonnie have kindly volunteered to cook the turkey (yum!), and participants are asked to consider bringing a side. Please contact Jean Reynolds (705-294-0085), who is organizing the dishes, to ensure that we have enough variety for a wonderful feast. Guests & extended family are very welcome to join in.
