“BEE” THERE!

All Central women are invited to “bee” at the Tuesday, March 18th Dorcas meeting.  We’ll gather in the Disciples Room at 6:00 p.m. for a special “Being a Beekeeper” program presented by Sheila and Johnathan Shartzer followed by delicious honey refreshments.  Join in for an evening of fellowship, fun and service.  RSVP by Friday, March 14th to Nancy Ellen Taylor to make sure we have enough goodies.  Contact Sandy Garver for more information about Dorcas Disciples.  Hope to see you March 18th!

STOP BY TO SEE IT!

Thanks to woodworker Jon Bryan and Décor Committee member Jeannie Backes we now have a beautiful wood plaque added to the Heritage Center.

The Décor Committee, with Mike Kirby’s help, was able to save three Disciples symbols (Alpha, Omega and Chalice) from the old wooden fireplace mantel that was removed for the Fireside Room renovation.  The symbols were added to a wood base and are now on display in the Heritage Center.

Take a few minutes to view the “new” addition to other historic artifacts in the Heritage Center, located off the Ramp Entrance and Great Hall.
