ATTENTION all 7th & 8th grade students:
Confirmation classes will be starting on September 14th. If
you will be going into 7th or 8th grade this fall, reserve
Wednesday evenings on your calendar for confirmation classes with Pastor Tony!
Parents & students, be watching for a letter to arrive
soon which will have the class schedule and all the de-tails that you’ll need to know.
Reminder to all members of the congregation:
When you come to worship ser-
vices each weekend, be sure to
check the lay ministry charts at the
back of the sanctuary to see if there
are any empty serving spots for the
current or following weekend. Our
team leaders do a great job con-
tacting people on their teams to try
to fill these spots, but sometimes
despite their best efforts there are
still openings. As always, your will-
ingness to assist is appreciated!
