EASTER FLOWERS

We are doing something different this year.  We are providing an opportunity for church members to order flowers from Holwerda’s.  Here is how it will work.  Take one of the order forms, fill out what you want to purchase and the name of who it will be In Memory Of.  Then, on Easter morning, for both services, the flowers will be used to decorate the sanctuary.  We will have a card on each plant with the name of the person it is in memory of.  The following Sunday you will be able to bring your flowers home, or give them to someone to bless.  The orders and payment need to be in to the office (checks written out to ROG Church) by Sun. March 21.  Any questions, see Mary Vanden Berg (293-2786).
