Nursery Volunteers Needed!
It takes a big heart to help shape little minds and, as Pastor Dan says, the most important
room in the Church building is the nursery. We need volunteers, both teens and adults,
for nursery care during our Sunday morning services.
Please consider volunteering once a month, or even every other month, your time and generosity would be greatly appreciated.
To volunteer, contact Heather Stowe at [email protected]

Pictures from Last Sunday! | | |
The terrorist attack in Buffalo last weekend sent me looking for appropriate music. This piece, which I may have shared here before, came to mind. “Let My Love Be Heard” was written by Jake Runestad, a young American composer. What I didn’t know was that he wrote it after a Philippine terrorist attack that killed an American student. Here’s a brilliant performance by the BYU Singers. | | |
I’ve also shared works by Mark A. Miller in this newsletter. Here is his composition “I Choose Love” which he wrote after the killing of 9 people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Columbia, South Carolina. | | | | | |
