Do you have any extra bibles ?

Many times we have adults and children in need who have no bible of their own.  If you have any extra bibles in good condition, would you like to donate, that they may search God’s Word for themselves.

Helping Pete and Colleen

Envelopes are located in the church pews and narthex to help Colleen with incidental costs while Pete remains hospitalized. www.caringbridge.org/visit/peteforster/journal

Youth Group is for the birds, fund raiser in the narthex.

Hurry, the seed is almost gone!! The proceeds go to the Youth Groups fund for the events and projects that they participate in. 

Good Samaritan Fund is low. Can you help?

Our Good Samaritan Fund is in need of funds and staples. We are having to turn families away.  There are still many needs for help.  You can put your donation in the offering plate marked “Good Samaritan” and/or bring non-perishable food items to the office.
