Wednesday,  February 17th 2010 ~ Ash Wednesday is the start of Lent.  Every Wednesday during the Lenten season,  there will be a meal @ 6:30 p.m. followed by the Lenten service @ 7:30 p.m.  This also is the start of our Lenten Project.    Wednesday February 17th (Ash Wednesday) through Sunday March 28th (Palm Sunday) This year the Lenten Project is based off our youth’s trip to New Orleans this summer. We are collecting items and monetary donations that will be donated to the Common Ground Relief in New Orleans. Common Ground Relief helps rebuild homes that are still destroyed from Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Items that we will be collecting are: insect repellent, hand sanitizer; Lysol wipes/spray; band-aids; paint tape, paint pans; wire brushes to remove old paint; latex gloves, dust masks, safety glasses; gift cards to Lowes, and gift cards to Home Depot. These items can be put in the box in the narthex or in the specific Sunday school class boxes in St. Andrew’s Hall.  Thank you for all your help.   Pepsi Refresh Project ~ Mary Jo Grieve,  the Director of St. Andrew’s Nursery School,  has applied for a Refresh Grant for St. Andrew’s.  If awarded, the money will be spent giving the school building a facelift, adding to the play yard, establishing funds for professional development, and funds for families in need. Your help, by voting and getting the word out about this, is needed.  Voting will begin online at 6:00 a.m. on April 1st 2010,  and you will be able to vote once every day throughout the month.
