Participate in Completing Your Emergency Contact Form
Recent experience has shown the importance of knowing whom to call if you became ill or had an accident in church. The form is simple to complete, it requests a name and phone numbers of individuals someone could call on your behalf in the event of an emergency or other need. The forms will be housed in a binder in the church office.
If you have not yet been able to complete a form, extras will be available in the back of the church each Sunday. When your form is complete it can be placed in the collection plate.
Summer choir for the 10:30am service
If you enjoy singing but can't always find a way to make weeknight rehearsals during the year, please consider coming out for the 10:30 summer choir. Singers will gather at 9:30 am to go over the hymns, service music, psalm, and a simple anthem or two for that morning. All are welcome. Please see Michael Salmon, if you have questions.
