From the Board...


On behalf of the Board, I want to thank everyone for your pledges that support the operation of our church. If there are still members who have not pledged, we urge you to do so. We have not yet reached our $90,000 MUST HAVE goal.


In August we will announce an exciting fundraising project that will help us get back to pre-pandemic numbers!


Have a great summer!


Andrea Kaiser, Board of Directors Chair

From Rev. Carol…


I will be on vacation from June 27th through July 31st. During that time, please direct any questions or concerns to Andrea Kaiser, Board Chair. The first two weeks I’ll will on Study Leave; time devoted to planning for the new church year. I will resume my regular schedule on August 15th. I will be available for meetings and appointments after that time. My first Sunday back “in the pulpit” will be September 12th for our annual Water Communion. Don’t forget to collect a little water from a special place this summer and enjoy these precious summer days.
