Baptism and a bake sale
A full day is planned this coming Sunday, Feb. 22, as a baptism will be held during the 10 a.m. worship service at Our Saviour’s.
Immediately after worship, a bake sale will be held as a fundraiser for the ministries of our ladies’ group, WELCA.
Come to celebrate new birth…and stay to share in some home-baked goodies!
