Barb's Medical Minute

Sinuses, explained. Sinuses are air-filled pockets with channels connecting to the nose. They are lined with mucus, a watery substance that washes dust and other particles from sinus cavities and out the nose. They are located (four pairs):

behind the forehead
behind each cheekbone
behind the bridge of the nose
deep in the skull behind the nose

Why they matter is because they filter dust, allergens, germs, and other pollutants from air breathed in through the nose. They also warm and humidify air before it moves into the lungs. This all sounds good until they get blocked! What to do? Drink green tea, inhale steam, rinse out with a nasal wash, drink water, run a humidifier, prop your head up, and blow your nose gently one nostril at a time. Sinuses are nothing to sneeze at!!

To the friends and family of Joan Houston who passed away July 9th.

Services are planned for the fall.

From Dorcas Circle Quilters:

Thank you for the sheets and fabric that we receive and for those who are sewing our kits. We are blessed for the support of the congregation.

Property Spotlight

July 2022

Emmanuel’s look is changing. If you’ve been to church, you’ve seen the beautiful standing Seam Metal Roof being installed in the soft Champagne color on the pitched areas. Soon, they will complete those pitched areas and begin the flat roofs. After roofs are completed, the painters will begin to paint the entire exterior including walls, trim, windows and doors, and red sidewalks. Can’t wait for you all to see the finished product in the fall. Our beautiful Church Campus will be fresh, clean, updated and safe.

Our Classrooms in Rowe Hall have been painted, new blinds installed and the carpet in 101, 103 and 104 will be removed and new vinyl tiles installed in late July. Room 105 and 106 have had their floors stripped and waxed. A new fresh look for our classrooms which house so many of our incredible ministries.

Watch for new cabinetry in the Fellowship Hall to help with storage for committees end of summer or early fall.

Our Garden Angels and Campus Keepers will start up helping on the campus as soon as it is safe after roof and painting projects are complete.

See you in the Fall! Blessings from the Property Committee.
