HAVE YOU SEEN THE EVERGREEN

FOLDING CHAIRS?

The chairs used in the fellowship hall for

numerous activities are still missing! Since

the new year has arrived and people usually

have A FRESH START CLEAN-OUT in and

around the house, hopes are high that they

will be discovered in some forgotten

closet, garage, or mysterious place that

will forever remain unnamed.

BE ON THE LOOKOUT AND

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

MORE EVERGREEN NEWS AND EVENTS

The Tuesday Night Women’s Bible Study group will begin a new

January News From The Outreach Team

January not only begins a new year and a new decade, but it also begins a new semester for students in Dothan City Schools. The school supplies you graciously donated in August have been used up by now and need to be re-placed. During the month of January please place items from the list below in the box outside Carol’s office:

Pencils Loose leaf paper Pens Spiral notebooks Pencil Pouches “Marble Cover” composition book Crayons (24 count) (non spiral) Crayons Classroom size Hand Sanitizer Glue sticks Clorox/Lysol Wipes Kleenex & Paper Towels

Thank you to all who during Advent donated canned goods to our Evergreen Food Pantry. Your generosity assures that the many families we serve on Wednesday mornings will eat better and sleep with fuller tummies during the coming months. The Outreach Team

The 2019 Evergreen Directories Have Arrived!

You may pick yours up at the Koinonia Lunch or

outside the church office. Don’t miss the

opportunity to stay connected with your church

family.
