Betty Parent — April 2014 Volunteer of the Month

We are proud to honor Betty Parent as our April 2014 Volunteer of the Month.

Always ready to tackle any problem with only the tools at hand, Betty whipped the church grounds into shape.

Betty improvised brilliant solutions to the church’s building and grounds problems.  She was always present at Building and Grounds Work Days.

Not content to just deal with the physical needs of the church,
Betty is also serves as a nursery volunteer and organizes All Souls potlucks.

For all that she does, Betty is the April 2014 Volunteer of the Month — she gets our deepest respect and a parking place.

March 2014 Volunteers of the Month

Our BOLTs (Bearers of Light and Tradition) are our March 2014 Volunteers of the Month.

Each Sunday, All Souls is reminded of our sources and principles through the work of five dedicated children and youth — Sam First, Gretchen Upton, Eleanora Lawrence, and Andrew Lawrence.

They make up our current team of Bearers of Light and Tradition more affectionately known as BOLTs.

In addition to public speaking and playing with fire, the children and youth pass the offering plates and many of them also perform in the All Souls theatrical productions.  Most recently, these junior members along with John Allen and Amanda Lawrence put on a most excellent production of Dr. Suess’s The Sneetches.

We appreciate the work all these young people do for All Souls each Sunday.

For their weekly work with our youth and more, we award them jointly the title of February 2014 Volunteers of the Month.
