Sunday Music
Choir reminder: Please join a small group of singers for a casual Sunday morning rehearsal to then perform during the morning service. We will rehearse an ‘easy to sing’ tune at 9:45 am in the sanctuary on the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Sundays. Consider trying something new! Happy to have you join us weekly, or occasionally.
Volunteers Needed!
Allison Hicks has offered to help our church singers and musicians provide live music for December 14th (kids’ Christmas program) and February 8th (secular Sunday) worship services. She would like to meet with anyone interested today after church to discuss. If you can’t come then, but wish to participate, we will keep you informed by email. Pass the word to others that might be interested!

What a wonderful partnership with The Wesley United Methodist Church and Bethlehem Lutheran Church from Sunday, July 20 to Thursday, July 24. Bible School on their adventure to True North was so exciting and fun for all of the children. The organizers should be so proud of the background and spiritual guidance that they provided. Many thanks to all that participated in making VBS a great success this year.
