Interfaith Understanding
Our congregation is participating in the 2012 Year of Interfaith Understanding.
Attention Snowbirds!
Please notify the church office if you are going away for the winter and would like to receive the church newsletter while you are away. It also saves us from having to pay “postage due” when the mail is returned to us because you are “temporarily” away.
Thank you, and we'll see you again in the spring!
Upcoming Outreach Opportunities
- We are always collecting personal care items (toothbrushes, razors, etc.) for veterans.
Youth Mission Fundraiser
Please bring in your cans for the youth to help support their projects.

Recycling
- There is a small basket by the entry doors in the Narthex for the recycling of the Sunday bulletins, rather than disposing of them in the wastebaskets.
- We no longer have a drop-off for newspapers at our church. If you wish to recycle your newspapers, look for a Paper Gator near you or drop them off at the Walker Firefighter’s Association trailer in the parking lot of Ace Hardware at 4300 Remembrance Rd. NW.
