VBS Donations Needed
You can be a HERO by donating snacks to the upcoming VBS in August! There is a sign up list in the foyer. Lots of items needed from grapes to graham crackers. Any questions, reach out to Bonnie Deroski.
We are now in the pledging phase of the Capital Campaign! We would love for your partnership in building out our vision of being the best, most welcoming church we can be! If you are led to do so, you are invited to make a pledge by the end of June! With $265,240 pledged, we are at 90% of our pledge goal of $300,000! This is great news and we are thankful to all who have pledged!
