Lesson plans are already prepared and easily adaptable. Email Jodie to get involved. Contribute to social hour: Cook, serve, or help clean up our fantastic coffee hour. Email Phyllis in the church office get involved. Visit an elder: Spend time with an elderly member who would love company and support. Make some music: All God's creatures get a place in the choir! Whether you are a professional musician or are a fumbling amateur, our choir has a place for you. Prefer to play an instrument or sing with a smaller group?
