The Martha Circle met on Monday evening, May 17^th in the Social Hall with our Leader, Ruth Karren, Conducting the meeting. Grace Novello’s devotions centered around that important day in May - Mother’s Day!!! She read some very inspirational poems and articles.

We recognized Diane Bradford’s May birthday. After the Treasurer’s report was read, it was voted to give $250.00 to St. Paul’s Restoration Fund.

The Circle decided to continue with raising funds through the sale of knives. These are made by the Rada Manufacturing Company - “Maker of the Aluminum Handle Cutlery”. Any member of the circle can be contacted for further information. There is also a limited amount of catalogs available.

Ruth then led us through a very enlightening discussion of the Lord’s Prayer. We read the Lord’s Prayer as found in the New Testament and then broke down each part to find a reference in the Old Testament. This was very interesting to all of us and inspired many thoughts within our Circle. Thank You Ruth, for another thought-provoking evening.

This will be our last meeting until September 20th. We wish everyone a summer filled with peace, love and happiness.
