Church Growth and Discipleship Committee to Sponsor Family Game Nights Remember what FUN we had at the Halfway Night sponsored by the Men’s Club last February? There was a large crowd of people and families enjoying board games, card games and hot dogs and chili. Besides our own church members, there were several people from the Mexico community who stopped by the church to partake in the festivities. With the blessing of the Men’s Club, our Church Growth and Discipleship Committee voted to sponsor several FAMILY GAME NIGHTS quarterly in our Fellowship Hall beginning with a game night on Saturday, September 21st. More information on this event will be forthcoming as the time gets closer.

In preparation for the installation of our Automated External Defibrillator (AED), we will be offering Red Cross Certified AED/CPR classes on Saturday, July 13th. The training will be in the Church Fellowship Hall. The morning session will be at 10:00 AM and the afternoon session will be at 1:30 PM. Each session has a maximum limit of 8 participants and will be approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours in length. The cost is $15 (cash only, please) which covers the Red Cross card and the trainer's fees. If you are interested, please email Marcia at mja320@gmail.com. Please indicate your first and second choice of sessions. If we have more interest than the number of spaces we have available, we will put you on a wait list. Also,we may look into offering another 2 sessions later in the fall.
The Trustees and a competent contracter, have seen that the recent needed repairs to our steeple and roof have been completed. Well done.

DO YOU LIKE PUTTING JIGSAW PUZZLES TOGETHER?
Well, we have them for your enjoyment. When weather or other circumstances makes other activities inconvenient, putting one of these beautiful 300 piece jigsaw puzzles together will be a welcome activity. Over 20 puzzles are available in our Fellowship Hall for you to take one home, enjoy, and return for another. These colorful nature- related puzzles were given by our members of our congregation to share with our church family. (A practice first put in place by Nellie Roberts.) Putting a puzzle together by yourself or a friend will make you realize what a beautiful world our God has made for us to enjoy. Scenes of colorful birds, flowers, trees, gardens and countryside are all depicted in these easy to assemble puzzles.
