Church is decorated awaiting Christmas

It took women of the parish more than two hours Wednesday to complete the decoration of the church for Christmas.  It was decided, this year especially ,  that the decor should not be as elaborate as in past years--but it is just as beautiful. Nine adults and four youths worked to decorate the church and  narthex.

Decoration of the Church was completed Wednesday morning after a load of poinsettias was delivered by Donzell’s greenhouse. The workers Wednesday were  Sally Casenhiser, Millie Hilton, Rosemary Mileski and Dora Weigand. Beth Reining of the Physical Property and Maintenance staff was there to provide a final cleaning touch.

Volunteers working earlier on the narthex included Paula Adam, Sandi Denholm, Bernie Factor and Dottie Thoerig.  Youths who helped were Aaron Abernathy, Josh Garey, Hannah McGraw  and Angie and Isabelle Miller.

Dave Nesline of the maintenance staff was on hand for all the decorating and was busy also helping with changing bulbs in the light fixtures.  See the item below.
