Winter is Here… Please Help Us!
Our
snow removal team consists of just a very few people. If you are willing and
able, we need YOU to help us with this job. Most often folks just show up
when needed, but to make sure snow is removed before Sunday services & any
scheduled event, we would like to have a list of people willing to help. Young
folk would be most welcome. This is a great family project as well! Please call
the office @ 772-3144 to put your name on the list.
