If you serve as an usher, please note that another new duty has been assigned. In addition to helping Jared East with the recording of the weekly sermon, we are asking you to count any food items that come in for the food cupboard each Sunday.
A new line has been added to the Worship Attendance form to report this number. For further information an updated Usher Duties has been placed in the acrylic stand at the ushers station. Thank for all you do each week!
SERMON RECORDINGS
Elder Jared East (with assistance from our ushers), is now overseeing the recording of sermons so they can be posted in our weekly newsletter and the homepage of our church website.
This is important for visitor outreach and for our homebound and hospitalized. It is also a service for members wishing to hear the sermon when they are out of town.
