Hi there everyone, I’m currently trying to take an inventory of all the keys to the church doors and who has what key for any door to our building. If you have any keys to any of the buildings, can you please email me back so I can add you to my list.

If you would like to contribute, please drop off your candy donations at the church office or bring them with you to Sunday service.


Thank you for helping us share a little Easter joy with the children of Norborne School! 🐰🌷🍬
