Members of St. Paul Lutheran Church of Martensdale
will hold their annual Trees, Tastes and Trimmings Sat-
urda Dec. 7, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The congregation
currently meets at Assumption Catholic Church and the
event will be held at the church hall, 2840 South St. in
ChurchviUe.
A chili and soup luncheon will be served and home-
made Christmas cookies and candy will be sold by the
pound. There will also be a display of trees and free
cookies and warm cider will be served. A number of
vendors will also be present to assist customers with
their holiday shopping.
The new church will be completed shortly, so next

nal building.
Setting a good example for children takes all the fun
out of middle age.
