First Things First
Summer Is On It's Way!
Canterbury's many ministries for outreach, worship, and learning stay in full swing throughout the summer -- and they all need funding. So please help keep the church's financial house in order this summer by continuing to pay your pledge commitment. Or better yet ... consider prepaying your giving plan BEFORE you head off for the surf, the lake, or the mountains.
Have a great, slowed-down summer. And please, put FIRST THINGS FIRST!
