During Lent mite boxes will be given to the children of the church.The money they collect in the boxes goes to Episcopal Relief and Development, which is the international relief and development agency of the Episcopal Church in the United States.
Lenten Coin folders are also available. The money collected in the coin folders will be given to Operation Understanding, our diocesan mechanism to provide grants to parish-based outreach ministries throughout Central PA.

| From Your Parish Nurse |
Your
Parish Nurse, Ginger Giammattei, RN
CHANGE (continued):In conclusion, one way to stay adaptable to change is to continue to embrace change in your life. Getting into a "rut" in any area of our life is unhealthy and supports inflexibility. Small changes in our diet, activities, contacts and skills will all help to prepare us for the unexpected, unwelcome ones. And, choosing to make small, interesting changes is healthy for our brain. Trying new things or old things in a new way builds new brain cells and connections and keeps us resilient. So, embrace change even when it hurts! www.mhaleb.org
Please remember your parish nurse as a resource
during times of need. Let the church office know (717-533-2454) if you need to make contact with our nurse, Ginger Giammattei,
RN.
Guard against colds
and flu- use the anti-bacterial hand-cleaner dispensers near the office, kitchen and church doors.
