New Second Atrium for CGS
The Baptistry at IHM will now serve as our second atrium and should be reserved exclusively for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd and baptisms. We kindly ask that it not be used for any other purposes. Additionally, we are in need of shelves, small coffee tables, end tables, and lamps in neutral colors for the atrium. If you have any items to contribute, contact Frannie.
