A Second Email?

Every now and then, things come up after the Wednesday email goes out.  And then there are the corrections (please forgive the editor)

The next two months are filled with opportunities for learning and serving. Filled.  Abundant. Some are new to us and some we’ve done for a long time.

We always need hands to make our learning and serving events successful. Prayerfully consider lending your hands in service this program year.

As always – whoever you are and wherever you are on your faith journey, know that you are most welcomed & beloved here.

Blessings,
Pastor Tina
