Thornwell Sunday is November 22

We will have Intergenerational Sunday School in the Fellowship Hall at 9:45am. We will learn about the work being done for children at Thornwell and then pack snack bags for students who attend after school therapy with Thornwell.

Then in 11:00am worship we will hear a minute for mission from a Thornwell representative and collect a special offering to support their Generations of Giving Thornwell Emphasis Month.
