October 3

This Sabbath, we're having sign ups for people to volunteer to help at the upcoming seminar.  You can also volunteer here by visiting our church website.  There is a need for Greeters, Ushers, Kid's programming, Parking Lot attendances (for 4 nights), Data Entry person(s), and snacks.  The meetings begin October 13 and our initial sign up phase is this Sabbath.  If you want to beat the rush, go to out website and sign up here - click for more

Nominating Committee 

The Nominating Committee will be completing their task soon and our vote for the new church officers will take shortly after that.  The nominating committee is suggesting we go for an 18 month term this time and then to a two-year term ever after.  This will mean strengthening our leadership and providing longevity to our work in ministry as we move forward.
