We Need Your Help!
You may not be able to preach, sing a solo or teach, but perhaps you could be part of the cleaning teams. We are at a point where more help is needed. We have three teams, so if you’d be willing to serve on a team, it’d involve about an hour and a half of your time every three weeks. Please call Carol Lewis (379-4691) soon. She’d be more than willing to put you to work.
This is a very important ministry.
