Nursery Spotlight

Alejandra Reyes, who goes by Ale' (pronounced like the beginning of "alleluia"), has been working with children for more than five years. And it shows! Ale' is a natural with the children in our nursery and Godly Play class.

She has been working in our nursery since last winter, then returned to the Dominican Republic, where her family is from and where her parents live now. We're so excited that Ale' is back in Colorado Springs and is now working in the Godly Play class as our all-important Door Person.

Ale' grew up in Colorado Springs and graduated from Cheyenne Mountain High School. She works as a full-time nanny for two girls and loves to read, paint/draw, and hang out with her friends.

Ale' says, "I spent some time in the Dominican Republic, but am super happy to be back with my church family and all my friends!"



We are so happy you are back, too, and blessed to have you on our Children's Ministry staff.

Food Pantry

Our July Food Drive was a great success! Thanks to all your generous donations, we exceeded our goal of 500 grocery items and collected 545 items to donate to D2 Pantry. Many thanks to all for your offerings.

Thank you for continuing to bring your donations on Sundays.
