Shower of Blessings for the Arrisons

On a sunny and unbelievably mild Sunday, January 7, many of the women of the church and a couple of men celebrated the birth of Alexandrew Arrison by giving a Baby Shower for Gwyneth, Jamie, Faith, Dena and the baby in Ellis Hall after the morning church service. Gwyneth was totally surprised as she and Alexandrew came direct from Mercy Hospital to church and then the shower.

After a delicious brunch, a number of gifts were opened, including the gift of a blanket that was made from several individual baby blue and white squares that had been knit by several of Peoples people. Pictured are Elaine Rogers, Barbara Nelson, Janice Huelin, Sharon Obie, Betsy Morrison, Marlene Tordoff, Kathy Brann, Claralee Street, Ellen Dunn, Betty Spletttstoesser, Sue Angell and Becky Snoddy. Other knitters included Merrill and Pat Kaiser, Nancy Greer, Pam Beal, Belle Graney, Bonnie Brown, Linda Wade and Samantha Foote. The blanket was crocheted together by the nimble hands of Marlene Tordoff.
