POP UP CLASS! Join us after worship today for a pop-up class
on David as the Psalm Writer. We'll look at how David made psalm writing his prayer practice and think about how we can use psalms in our own prayers. We'll meet in the Brick Room. Bring your snacks from fellowship! If you have any questions, please contact Pastor Becki.
PHOTO ALBUMS IN DISREPAIR There are several photo albums that were put
together for our 50th anniversary. That was back in 2007, and they are showing the wear and tear of those 11 years. Is there someone who would like to take on the task of making them attractive again, perhaps putting in new albums? Reimbursement, for sure. Please contact Sally Heimbach if this task speaks to you. Thanks!
