DIAPER AND WIPE SHOWER – THIS SUNDAY!
We have the opportunity to help one of our families get ready for their new baby. Jarrod and Madeline (Morthland) McDaniel are expecting their baby very soon. We will collect diapers and wipes on Sunday, June 14. (You can bring items before and after the 14th too.)

The family uses Pampers Amore diapers and needs newborn or size 1. Wipes can be any brand as long as they are unscented and for sensitive skin. We hope you will all join us on the 14th to celebrate with the McDaniel’s!

RUMMAGE SALE – IT’S ALMOST TIME!
Help is needed from the Westminster family in order to make our rummage sale on June 5 & 6 a success. On Sunday, May 31, after worship service, items need to be taken off the stage and put on tables. This will only take a small amount of time if we have many hands.

Monday through Wednesday 9-12, help is needed sorting and organizing the items. NO pricing is necessary. Hours of the sale when help is needed is Friday 8-2 and Saturday 8 - noon. We usually have a line waiting to get in so the early morning hours are very busy. Finally clean up help is needed Saturday starting at noon.

More items are being accepted. Plants sell very well so if you have any plants or plant starts, they can be sold. These are several chances to help with an event that is important to the church and community.
