Election of Elders

Our congregation is growing and we are in need of some additional elders to visit in districts. Any member of the church who attends regularly is eligible for nomination.  There is a nomination paper in this bulletin.  Please give some prayerful thought to nominating people whom you think would make good leaders in our congregation.  This is the last day for nominations.

Pastoral Visitors

Upcoming Events

We have a very dedicated team of people who assist the elders in visiting people in our congregation and distributing the communion invitations four times per year.  If you enjoy visiting with others, please give some thought to volunteering as a pastoral visitor.  There will be a training session and each pastoral visitor will have an elder who is available to provide assistance when needed.   If you are interested, please give your name to Aubrey or to any elder.
