Nursery Volunteers Needed

A new nursery schedule is being made. Please consider volunteering for this important ministry. 

Please let Elizabeth Albright know ASAP if you would you like to volunteer for nursery during SS or Worship. Please indicate if you can volunteer for Christmas Eve.  Also, if you already volunteer, please let her know if you need to alter how often you’re scheduled and if there are dates you know you are not available.

10th Anniversary Celebration November 4th

This year instead of our fall Harvest Festival community outreach event we are having a Celebration of our church’s 10th anniversary on Saturday, November 4 from 11am-3pm. This event is for all members, regular attenders, their extended families, and other special guests. We do need an accurate count for food planning so please RSVP for your family and any additional guests you wish to bring. You may RSVP via the link in the invitation email sent to you or sign up on the sheet posted on the bulletin board at church.

We will have a meal from 12:00-2:00 and video and praise/sing session from 2:00-3:00. We will have a buffet style meal. Meat, rolls, paper products, condiments, cake and coffee and tea will be provided. Volunteers are needed to bring sides.

There are several other volunteer needs as well:

We need folding chairs for the Anniversary Celebration. We have collected about half of the chairs we need, so if you are able to help by loaning chairs for the Anniversary Celebration, please contact Maria Ettema at rmettema@verizon.net as soon as you are able. We also need 7 rectangular folding tables (like the ones we use for the fellowship meals).  If you have folding tables to loan for the day of the celebration, please email Maria Ettema. Be sure to put your name on the bottom of chairs or tables you loan.

We need 12-packs of soda and water for the Anniversary Celebration. There are also several volunteer needs. Please sign up if you are able on the signup sheets on the bulletin board.

Please see the signup sheets on the bulletin board for ways you can help! Speak to Gina Powell if you have any questions.
