CMP is having a drawing for a beautiful afghan very generously donated by Sherri Hondorp. This afghan won a blue ribbon at the county fair! The afgan will be displayed in the Fellowship Hall for the next few weeks. Make a donation of any amount to CMP, fill out a slip with your name and phone number, and we’ll draw a name from the pot on December 20 after the second service. Questions? Call Cyndy
