Laguna Chapalac – October 29, 2011
In (and out of) the chapel
The Little Chapel by the Lake has held an evening of “singing” for the past several years. It is a gathering on the fourth Sunday of the month at 5 p.m. to just sing. People from Christian churches in the Lakeside area participate. The congregation sings songs that are requested.
Belva Velazquez and Judy Hendrick play the piano or keyboard. Bob Hendrick of Lake Chapala Baptist Church and Raul Frutos of the Holy Spirit Church in Chapala play guitars and other stringed instruments. Danny and Kay Borkowsky of Christ Church Anglican add harmony and enthusiasm.

The quilt is 78 inches by 92 inches (double bed size). The motif is the well-known image of the Virgin of Guadalupe surrounded by roses. Tickets are 20 pesos each or three tickets for 50 pesos. Call Trish Conner at 766-5233 or Gerri Tredway at 765-2427 for tickets.

Longtime local friends gathered for a festive brunch held on September 25.
