Join us for the last Wednesday Family Fellowship program of the year on May 17! Professional organizer, Stephanie Belanger will teach us how to clean for spring. Spring is the perfect time to declutter and organize. Dinner at 5:15 and program at 5:45 in Fellowship Hall. Childcare provided. 

We are always seeking beginner-intermediate instrumentalists from our congregation to enrich Sunday worship services! Are you playing an instrument in school right now? Did you play in high school or college years ago? Have you been learning an instrument on your own as an adult? If the answer is YES to any of these questions, you qualify for the job. Degrees and advanced skills are NOT necessary. Whether you read music or play by ear, we can use your abilities in worship. Specifically, you would be adding an instrumental line (melody or duet part, for example) to familiar congregational hymns with organ or piano and choir. We can work with your schedule and find convenient times for you to practice and perform with the music team. This is all about having fun and sharing the joy of music with others! If you're interested, please fill out this form. Our Music Director will receive and respond to your response - thank you! https://forms.gle/CGJkXt2Mr1sEtMxk8 Loading…
