Grace and peace to you all. Yesterday was a good day. Andrew did a great job with the sermon, preaching on the keeping grace of Christ. The church picnic was fantastic … great weather and great turnout (so many kids!). Thanks to the Gilbert's and Jamie Butler for their work on that. And we dedicated little baby Norah Jane Swope. Our high-schoolers had a great retreat, though there was a little car trouble. A really great day.
Reminders …
- Wednesday Night Bible study this week at 6:30.
- Brad's father's (Milton Herring) funeral arrangements.
- Fall Festival is October 25th.
