The new meeting schedule for 2023 was discussed.  There will be no meeting in January as it seems we usually had to cancel because of bad weather. The meetings will resume in February until June. 

Discussion took place regarding a Valentine Fundraiser in February.

The draw took place on the 2 beautiful Christmas Baskets that Marg Drexler had made as a fundraiser. Tickets were $2 or 3 for $5 and were sold after church from November 20- December 11.  The first basket went to Charlotte Brohman and the second was won by Hughina Spenser. This money raised will go toward the paying the league memberships for our shut-ins.

The meeting closed with a prayer for vocations. Coffee and Christmas treats were enjoyed by those attending the meeting.
