From the Stewardship Committee

The Stewardship committee needs your help! So far, after two training sessions, we have only eight visiting stewards. That means every visiting steward has too may names of people needing to be visited. Cliff Staton will do a quick training for any committed member or friend willing to be a visiting steward.
