FALL RETREAT: “Keeping Sabbath: God’s Gift of Re-Creation”
Come celebrate the joy of living in Christ at our church-wide retreat at Beersheba Springs, September 26-28 (Friday night through Sunday morning). Our own Max Mayo will be leading the retreat. There will be free time on Saturday afternoon with many suggestions of activities or an opportunity for you to just rest in the peaceful surroundings or chat with old and new friends while rocking on the porch.

A nutritious and affordable meal will be served on Wednesday evenings (beginning Wed, Aug. 17th) in the Christian Life Center (CLC) from 5:00-6:30pm. Each week's menu also includes a KID’S OPTION of a Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich and Fruit.

The missions committee will have a storage area available throughout the year. This will allow church members to make donations of items at anytime during the year. So as you clean out those hidden areas, buy new stuff, or move , whatever the occasion, remember our auction and donate items. They are tax deductible!!! For pick-up, just call the church office and they will contact us for pick- up. WE will in turn contact you and arrange for a date and time for pick-up.
