NEW SUMMER WORSHIP SCHEDULE
JULY 4 - SEPTEMBER 5, 2010 @ 10:00 A.M.
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:
Have you noticed the new trees on the Manse lawn? These were placed there by the Union Township Shade and Tree Department. The existing tree is dying and must come down before someone is hurt.
Keep your eye on the garden in front of the cemetery. Bob and Jane Reichle will be doing their "magic" again this year. I know all appreciate the beauty they create. Thank you!!!
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN:
CIC received $23,482.17 to date. This is allowing us to replace the double doors at the front of the south wing of the buildings. Now we are working on the heating of the stage area. This will mean a new zone with its own thermostat. Now we will not have to pump up the heat in the Nursery School to heat the minister’s office.
Keep your eyes on the CIC spot in the Almanac for future fund raisers.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN
The CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN is now in full swing. We have received to date $3,859.00. This puts us over the half-way mark to do the first item of importance on our list. If we keep this up, we will be able to do the Church Security System in the year 2009. The CIC Committee is grateful for the response by you—the Congregation of Connecticut Farms Church.
We hope you will keep the importance of these projects foremost in your Mind.
2010 PER CAPITA
The Per Capita payment for 2010 is $30.00 per member. Our church is required to pay this amount to the Presbytery for each member. It is separate from your regular pledge amount.
