Christ healing an infirm woman on the Sabbath,
by James Tissot (1886-1896)
Each year it is the privilege of our congregation to
give our 3rd graders the gift of a Bible with a prayer
that they would construct their whole lives around the
words of the God of life, love and faith. Please
register your 3rd grade child with the church office or
Josh Tietje by Wednesday, September 4.
Registration is open for our Wonderful Wednesday
elementary after school program. Forms are available in the
Commons and Church Office. Please return forms to the church
office or via email to [email protected]. Please
contact Josh Tietje with any questions.
Let us bring in the Light of Christ! Acolyte
training will begin on Sunday, September
15 at 3:00 in the Sanctuary. We will meet
for three weeks September 15, 22, & 29.
Acolyting is an important part of our
worship in carrying the light of Christ into worship and out into
the world as well as serving as a worship assistant. All 3rd
graders and older (including adults) are welcome to join us.
Please see Rev. Kyle for more information or questions
UMYF and Bridge Resume: Sunday, September 8th all
