Children's Church this Sunday! Children are invited to follow the cross after the Collect and return during the peace. A lesson and activity will help our children grow in faith and grace. Please contact Brenning Daughtridge if you are interested in volunteering to help teach this important ministry for our children.

Nursery is available during the service for the very little ones. Please see an usher for information.



After the 10:30 service, join us for Coffee Hour in the Parish Hall lobby and enjoy a donut and some good fellowship.
