A special thanks to all the folks who served communion last week over Labor Day weekend! It wouldn't have happened without you. If you are able to serve your church community this way, once a month, please contact Rita Whipple 
 
Most Small Groups have started this week, but it's not too late to join up. So make sure and visit the area in the foyer and find a group that fits your needs! If you have any questions about small groups, email Megan Breed.  
 
This Sunday, our new series begins on "Invitations". Our Small Groups will be following along...just one more reason to find a group!  
 
Hope to see you again this Sunday!
