MISSIONS AND OUTREACH COMMITTEE SPECIAL GUESTS -MARCH 22nd
Just wanted everyone to REMEMBER we have guests this Sunday from Shelter. Come and invite a friend to church. Ed and Brenda Stein will share photos, information and stories of the mission work of this Christian Home Building charity. Glenbrook has given funds at the recommendation of the Missions and Outreach Committee this past January. John Roe will join our guests in presenting the outcome of his and many other trips to El Salvador.
Following the service there will be a El Salvadorian themed lunch provided in the Hearth Room. The committee has put together a special menu so that we can all taste a bit of another country where God’s work is being accomplished.
WOMEN'S DAY LUNCHEON
We will host a Women’s Luncheon on Saturday, April 18 from 11am-2pm for the women from Glenbrook and St. Thomas A Becket churches.
