 This probably looks like chaos, but sometimes chaos leads to progress. Many people, during this period of “sheltering at home” have been working on home-based projects that they have long put off: cleaning out the garage, going through closets, etc. The same is true for our church, at least for our children’s department. In addition to finding creative ways to reach out to families and children, Sheri, our children’s director, has been sorting through toys, supplies, and resources; cleaning some, disposing of some, and preparing others for storage. Hopefully when we are finally able to have Sunday School again she is going to have our children’s and children’s church areas ready to go.
Thank you Sheri!  Our time of recognition, for our graduates, was significantly different this year but still we were able to share in small way a message of encouragement and celebration. Special thanks to Sheri Osborn, Gerri Holmes, and Heather Graham, who planned, shopped, assembled, and delivered gifts for each of our graduating seniors.

 Several people have notice that our Carillon Bells are not presently ringing and have wondered what the situation is regarding them. The answer is that the Carillon started having problems right about the time the Corona virus problem was spreading and the plant that services these was temporarily shut down. They were not sending out any repair personnel and were doing “in-house” repairs only on a limited basis. At present we have sent the unit back to the factory which is now working on repairs but again, only on a limited basis. They assure us that our is in repair process but they can not guarantee is a date for return. Hopefully it will be fully functional again soon. Thank you for your interest!
