Sunday School starts next Sunday, September 19th: the children and youth Sunday School will resume on Sunday, September 19. Begin by worshipping with your family then leave for Sunday School after the Time with the Children. Preschoolers meet in the classrooms down the hall across from the sanctuary and grades 1 – 8 meet on the second floor.
 
Share the bounty of your gardens: We are collecting excess garden vegetables. Bring them to church on Sunday morning. You will see a drop off sign inside the foyer.  Contact Tom Neal for further information by email at ttneal@sbcglobal.net or talk to him after church.  By gathering a collection of excess garden produce from our church membership we can be distributed it to local food pantries. If we get creative next year we could even build our own gardens to grow food for the homeless and hungry. We need volunteers to organize this process for our church.
