Greetings Church,
This Sunday, we continue our worship series, Beguiled by Beauty. Our text for the day is Psalm 16. You’ll hear it read by Wendy Lithwin. If you’d like to hear it sung, check it out here. We’ll remember together that God is with us in the best, and most difficult moments of life. Parents, heads up, the seek and find item during children’s time is a blanket. We’ll also have our church conference at 11:30 am. We’ll use this time to approve the use of funds from the Paycheck Protection Program Loan.
Peace,
Heather
