GROCERY CART MINISTRY Each month we are collecting certain items for our Food Pantry. For the month of Ju-ly we are collecting PANCAKE MIX AND SYRUP. You can place your donation in the shopping cart that is in the narthex. THE ITEMS WE ARE REQUESTING ARE THE ONLY ITEMS WE NEED THIS MONTH. This will help to keep expenses down for the Food Pantry. Thanks for your help!!

TELEPHONE AND INTERNET UPGRADE

Our new telephone and internet system has

now been installed. When you call 792-9260 you will be given the option of reaching

individual extensions.

When the system answers, you will be prompted to enter an extension.

“To reach: the main church or the office: press “1” the pastor: press “2” the 3-year-old preschool class: press “3” the 4 & 5-year-old class: press “4” the prayer line: press “5”

Because we are switching our service to Comcast, the church email address will be

changing as well. The new email address is not set up as of today, but should be this week. A church-

wide email will be sent with the new email address when it is activated. Once the new email is activated,

westyorkcob@verizon.net will no longer be active.

Thank you for your patience and understanding through this transition.

If you would like the Wi-Fi password, see Pastor Greg.
