Barbara's birthday
I was assured Barbara would not see this post as she has no computer. This is to be a surprise. It was decided after last week's service that this coming Sunday (07/19/2015) we would celebrate Barbara Chapman's birthday. There will be cake and you will have an opportunity to give Barbara a birthday card. IF AND ONLY IF you want to give her a gift, the following was proposed:
Gift card from any of these places that she frequents:
Publix
Kroger
Walmart
Applebee's
O'Charlie's
Rice (Chinese resturant off exit 17 at the Publix shopping center on highway 306 and 369)
There will be a basket into which you can drop your birthday card and/or gift card and we will present it to her as a church. So if you want your gift card to be anonymous that is fine. The gift cards will be put altogether as one gift from the church. OR you may, if you want, sign your gift card so she knows it comes from you.
Please understand you do not HAVE to get her a gift card or even a birthday card....only if you want to. Everyone just felt it appropriate to recognize her birthday at church.
See you Sunday
