Homemade cookies are preferred, but they will gladly accept cookies made from the tubs of mix that can be purchased at local stores. The recipe and baking/ handling instructions are on Lindenwood’s website and also available from Cleolyn Young at 377-1032 or Cleolyn@bellsouth.net.
Please bring your cookies on Sunday morning, February 26th by 11:00 to the receptionist’s desk.

| Family Sunday is the second Sunday of the month We ask that all children, youth and adults worship as a family in Chapel, W.O.W. or Sanctuary services.

For those children who have parents elsewhere in the service (servers of communion, choir members, etc.) they may sit with David and Sharron Johnson. |
