Work Day at St. John

Saturday, July 13th from 8-10am

We will need volunteers to spruce up our gardens and lawn areas as well as assist with cutting down the shrubs/trees adjacent to our parking lot.  We have rented a dumpster to efficiently dispose of debris.

Please bring light tools (e.g. hedge clippers, rakes, edger, shovel, gas for power equipment, gloves).  We will have lots of water available.  The more volunteers, the better for our church!!

Please call Greg Capers 706-733-6182 for more information.  Thank you very much for your participation.
