Cards and Notes of Encouragement During this time of social distancing those in nursing homes, rehab centers and our homebound feel very lonely. Won’t you take a moment to send them a card or note of encouragement to let them know they are being thought of.

As a reminder, we are not passing the offering plate during worship service. However, tithes and offerings may be placed in the offering box located in the vestibule, mailed to the church, placed in the “IN” box outside the church office, or you may contribute online.

rder of ervice You will find a copy of todays Order of Service in the hymnal racks in the Sanctuary and on the table at the entry to the Family Life Center so that you can follow along during the service.

Letters for Deacon Nominations will be sent out this week. Those who have an email address, please look for your letter to be sent by email. If you do not have an email address one will be mailed to you through USPS. You may also pick up a copy at the church office later in the week.
