This Wednesday night during dinner, 6-6:30, Pastor Tommy will be at the back table to answer any questions that a parent or student might have about Follow Conference. There will also be a chance to register students that are wanting to go as well, so that we can get a head start on that process. Remember that the deadline for the early bird special ends on Sept. 25th in order for Pastor Tommy to register the students in time. It is one of the biggest events that our youth are planning to be apart of this church calendar year and Pastor Tommy would love to talk to you about it if you're student has any interest in going.
