Christian Women’s FellowshipJean Chapin, Chair CWF met six times for regular meetings with a guest speaker at each meeting with the exception of our first meeting, and that was a “White Cross” work meeting. We also held our annual luncheon at Colgate Inn. Our meetings are always open to anyone who would like to attend. Many thanks to our 2007 program committee (Marilyn Upton, Holly Bisselle, Margaret Miller, Lois Rainsford and Martha Youman). This committee is responsible for setting the theme for each meeting.
White Cross coordinator, Sallie von Mechow, easily collected the quota for supplies requested in 2007. Eleanor Ross sent out cards to those needing some “sunshine” during times of concern. Margaret Miller and Marilyn Upton co-chaired the Lawn Sale that was held on August 25 on the south lawn and fellowship hall. Along with their faithful helpers, they started officially collecting items on July 5. Each item that comes in is cleaned (if needed), tested to make sure it works if electrical and sorted to different spots in the church. This year we had a silent auction on a 1990 Sea Sprite fiberglass power boat that brought in $3000 … total for lawn sale was $7,129.19 … record high! During 2007, our reception coordinator, Susan Barrett supervised the reception (that was catered by Curtain Call) following the memorial service for Lois Lee Clark. The slate of officers for 2008: Susan Barrett, Chair, Secretary - Carolyn Todd, Treasurer - Lillian Townsend, Sunshine - Jean Chapin, White Cross - Sallie von Mechow, Receptions - Eleanor Ross and Martha Youman, Lawn Sale - Margaret Miller, Postcards - Jean Chapin, Program Committee - Holly Bisselle, Jean Chapin, Lois Rainsford, Marilyn Upton, Sallie von Mechow and Martha Youman.
