WE WANT YOUR BAGS!!!
The Bag Ladies are back in business!! We will be set up in our usual room at Gifts Galore in November. Monies raised will support a special project to enhance our worship experience at Memorial.
Please bring your gently used handbags, wallets, eyeglass cases, etc. and put them in the hallway around from the receptionist office (near the Arts & Alter storage room). We are looking forward to this fundraising event- everyone deserves a “like new” bag just for getting through the past year!! Thank you for your continued support of the Arts and Alter members who work hard to make our church a beautiful place to gather.
