JOIN US FOR 9:00 am OUTDOOR WORSHIP, Sunday July 15th
Pastor Grant Applehans
"Blessing of the Animals"

Animals - from the very beginning when God created, they helped complete the goodness of God's creation.  Throughout our time on this earth they have given us companionship, perspective, and insight on this place and our position in it.  Come and be a part of blessing the animals of the congregation.  Come and be blessed by God's word to you and to all of God's creation - 
it might just change your life!
 


B ring your pet to this Sunday's Worship for a special blessing
Just a friendly reminder to please empty your church mailboxes located just outside the sanctuary on the north wall. Thank you!
