Lyra O’Brien, the lady with the clipboard, has toiled tirelessly to organize two small but important functions: before each Sunday service a couple of volunteers arrive early to greet church members and visitors as they arrive. During the service, one or two members of the congregation leave their pews to deliver the readings selected for that day. Organizing these activities is a small ministry that Lyra, a pillar of the Welcoming Committee, has selflessly contributed to the church for some time. We thank her for her service.
