Bible Hour got off to a great start last week, I appreciate everyone who helped out behind the counter and during Bible Hour!

Thank you parents for being patient with us as we began our new check in system. Our goal is to provide a safe and secure area for our children.

We are beginning a ministry called KIDS KARE to teach the children about giving to others. For the month of September we are focusing on our Care Center. We need the children to bring CANS OF CORN next week to Bible Hour.

Thank You!
