LOVE OFFERING- POP UP PLANT SHOP FEB 15TH

The Brewers are moving as missionaries to East Asia in about 19 weeks. Part of this process is getting their home down to basic needs. Melissa is therefore looking to re-home her many precious houseplants. So, as a church we are setting up a Pop Up Plant Shop on Feb. 15th! This will see her plants gain great new homes, AND give you an opportunity to generously support them as their church family.
