UPDATE ON FELLOWSHIP HALL
We are thankful for our youth and former youth (now adults!!) that came together to learn from each other and work beside each other on Saturday. Thanks to Mary Todd Earnhardt, Katherine Clapp, David Reynolds (and his wife Bridget) and Cody Nance for working with us on this project. Thanks as well for John Ann Earnhardt for providing breakfast, Ron and Jennifer Pittman for lunch, Judy Shelton and Edna Earle and Joe Sturdivant for the sweet treats. And many thanks to Larry Shelton and the other adults who coordinated this entire project. Here's the finished product!
WEDNESDAY NIGHT LIVE STARTING SEPTEMBER 14
Save the date! Wednesday Night Live will be starting back on September 14, with dinner and a program each week. We will have a game night on our first gathering on September 14, as well as grilled chicken for dinner. Look for how you can RSVP for dinner in next week’s announcements and Weekly Word Email, and we look forward to seeing you on Wednesday nights!
RECEPTION FOR ANNA RICHARDSON RAAB – SEPTEMBER 18
Anna Richardson Raab is finishing her work with us as Youth Ministry Coordinator on August 31, and we want to express our deep gratitude for all she has done in her ministry here at Western Boulevard over the last five years. The Christian Education Committee will be hosting a reception for Anna after the morning worship service on Sunday, September 18, in the Fellowship Hall. Please plan on joining us that day as we celebrate Anna!

DIVORCE CARE
If you are considering separation or divorce, don’t try to go through it alone. Connect with a DivorceCare group either in person or online.

Contact DivorceCare HERE or speak with a Deacon or Elder for a list of several groups that meet in The Triangle area, churches or online.
