Happy Friday! Today is do a Grouch a Favor Day. Maybe they are our neighbor, a coworker, part of our family, or a stranger we meet at the store or on the street. Some people are always grouchy, and some people only become grouchy after a lot of stress is placed on them. We probably have all been grouchy at some point. No matter where a grouch is found today, the day is for doing them a favor, with the hope that it will cheer them up, and help their grouchiness subside. Here are ideas on how to celebrate Do a Grouch a Favor Day.

If you are interested in helping in any way (set-up, serving, clean-up, etc.), please, please reach out to Cana (does anyone want to craft and decorate with me?), Kelly, or Rejane (this lunch takes a LOT of cooperation in the kitchen). This is such a special time when our whole faith family comes together to share a meal, reflect on the year, and elect a new Vestry class to carry us into the next year.
See recent Newsletters, Sermons, or Announcements. It’s fun to look back and see what was going on in years past.
