Speaker: Marybeth Redmond of Vermont Works for Women, a published author known for her work with incarcerated women, will share a presentation entitled "Experience Christ on the Margins."
Food: At the December meeting, we traditionally bring cookies to exchange. Even if you don't love cookies, it can be nice to go home with an interesting assortment for family, friends, guests, or kids' teachers to try! Please bring three dozen cookies to exchange. If you can't bring three dozen cookies, bring two dozen, or buy cookies, or just bring your own self. Trust me, we would rather see you even if you can't bring cookies, and there will be plenty to go around.
Donation: Last year, our December toy collection for kids in the Diocese of Brooklyn who were impacted by Hurricane Sandy was a great success. This year we will be collecting toys for local kids via Toys for Tots. Please bring a new toy worth less than $30. Toys for Tots anticipates particularly needing toys for kids age 10-12. As always, donation is optional.
Other details: As usual, child care will be provided and we will be meeting in the St. Edmunds Room in the back of the rectory at St. Lawrence Church, Essex Junction. We look forward to seeing you!
