Reminder - Our worship service will remain at 10:30am, during the summer, with Sunday School resuming in fall.
It takes many people to make an event like the Sunday School Picnic a reality. Many thanks to all who contributed their possessions and talents to share with our church family, whether it be corn hole games, the barrel train, or horses! A very special acknowledgement to teh food committee, those who handled the bbq and all who brought food to keep us all fed. To those who set up and clean up - your service did not go unnoticed. We are so grateful for our church family and the wonderful day we shared together. - The Christian Education Committee
