As most of us know we have just completed a wonderful sequence in Adult Christian Education on Symbolism where we learned about Christian symbols. We are beginning a new tradition at St. Mary and St. Martha of preparing a CHRISMON tree which will have beautiful ornaments all made as Christian Symbols. WE hope to make 200 by Christmas which will be placed on a Christmas Tree in the Nave. WE need everyone to join the Chrismon-making Team which will be directed by Barbara Maynard. The first class will be on October 09, 2008 in the Parish Hall. They will be very easy to make and what a wonderful way to help all of us be reminded of God's greatest gift of all -- Jesus Christ. The class will begin at 6:30 p.m.; however come when you can. You will be so rewarded with these beautiful symbols. Kathryn L. Garrard
Please keep the parish in your thoughts and prayers.
