I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. As everyone tries to squeeze in those last vacations before school starts and summer comes to an end, the choir will continue our summer schedule of practicing every other week through the end of August. Practices will be Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. on August 3rd, 17th, and 31st. Weekly practices will resume starting Thursday September 7. In addition to practicing weekly anthems we will also begin sometime in September to practice for the Christmas Cantata. If you would like to join this great group of servants who love to sing from their heart for the glory of God, this would be a great time to get started.

Choir Director

Construction Update
This week the construction crew continued to work on the entrances to COM and the Fellowship Hall. They have also been putting finish coats of paint upstairs and downstairs. The work on the drop ceiling tiles downstairs has begun. The tie in to the electric and plumbing in Byrd Hall will start soon and will take a couple of weeks. Progress continues to move positively forward.
