From Liz Tash, Director of Hospitality “Dear Presbyterian Women, Thank you to all the PW ladies that helped this year with Christmas decorating at Peachtree! We appreciate your faithful service to our Hospitality Ministry and we could not have gotten everything done without YOU! There have been so many members and guests who have commented on how beautiful our church looks, and it is the result of all the volunteers who gave their time so generously. Thank you again for your help. Peachtree looked more beautiful this year than ever before!”
