FELLOWSHIP HOSTS ARE NEEDED – Hosts are needed for our fellowship hour that takes place in the church lounge following worship. Responsibilities include providing light refreshments of cake, cookies, fruit, crackers, cheese, juice, soda and/or anything of a similar nature. (Store bought items are most welcome!) A sign-up is available in the church lounge, or you may contact the church office to request a Sunday. Thank you!
ALLERGY REQUEST FROM SUNSHINE DAY NURSERY-Two children now going to Sunshine Day Nursery have peanut/tree nut allergies. One child is severely allergic meaning that her allergy can be triggered simply by touching a common surface that has peanut/tree nut debris or oil (such as a toilet handle, door handle, or railing). To help prevent triggering a severe reaction in these children, please use caution in the Christian Ed Building including washing hands before entering building.
ADULT CHOIR REHEARSALS WILL TAKE PLACE ON THURSDAYS AT 7 PM AT THE CHURCH. New members are always welcome, even novices who are willing to learn. Justan is a great teacher and has some exciting plans for our music program.
CHILDREN AND WORSHIP AND GODLY PLAY PROGRAMS-Thanks to the hard work of many, both these programs have met with much success. To continue them, we are in need of volunteers willing to be trained to serve as assistants and/or leaders. If you are willing and able to help, please contact the church office. Thank you.
