along with photo repository. Volunteers are meeting for design sessions in April. An announcement will be made in church when the directory is submitted for printing. The church brochure is being updated. M&E will host a community supper over the summer. The next Membership & Evangelism meeting will take place on Thursday May 23 at 7:00 p.m. in Wesley Center. Come one, come all to help plan our fellowship opportunities! Lindsay Wilson College Singers Thank you to those who supported the Lindsay Wilson College Singers concert event on April 3rd at St. Peter's Church. Mary Taylor members supported the potluck dinner and hosted many of the Columbia, Kentucky students overnight. Those who attended the concert can attest to what an inspirational and uplifting evening it was. We enjoyed choral and violin performances and a special fellowship opportunity with other Milford congregations. Mayor Blake presented the group with a key to the city of Milford and he in turn received official recognition from the state of Kentucky as a "Kentucky Colonel"! Adult Progressive Dinner Back by popular demand after a 10+ year hiatus, the adult progressive dinner will take place on Saturday May 4th at 6pm. Thanks to all who have agreed to serve as hosts for this exciting evening. Please e-mail Cathy Cono if interested in hosting or attending GOT PIANO ? WANT TO DONATE? The piano in the chapel is having a hard time “Making a joyful noise unto the Lord,” and needs to be replaced. If you have an upright piano in good condition that you would like to donate, please call Gina Bonfietti (our piano technician) at 203-882-8082 or email her at gina@ginaspiano.com, or call the church office. |

Three preparatory sessions will be held on Sundays, April 7, 14 and 21, immediately following morning MTMUMC (April 21). You may attend these sessions to learn and inquire without making a commitment to join.
