We were blessed to have the guests listed above who did not

OUR GOAL IS TO GET EVERY MEMBER TO SERVE

6 or 12 TIMES A YEAR IN A MINISTRY OF SERVICE.

\You can be a faithful servant all year long,just by serving 6 or 12 times a year. You can serve in most Tabernacle ministries faithfully for just a one year

term once a month or once every two months,just 6 or 12 Sundays in a year.

Many workers makes the work lighter for all.
