COFFEE HOUR:  Do you feel that fellowship is important?  If yes, then we are looking for you to sign up to host a coffee hour.  It’s fun and easy: just bring some goodies to share after the 10:15 Sunday service.  If you are unsure about making coffee, no worries, there is always someone around who can help.  It’s a great way to connect with all the wonderful people at St. Albans.  The sign-up sheet is on the bulletin board with all the details.
