The information for the directory has been sent to Re:Member Church
Directory. A draft of this will be sent to us
to review. Once this is reviewed and send it back,
the final product should be here within a month. If you have sent a picture of your own to be put into the directory, a $5 charge will need to be paid to the church. If you send a check, please make it out to the church, with “directory picture” in the memo. Nur-ture will pick up the tab for those in the nursing home and homebound. Thank you for your patience with this project. Janet Schwartz, Bill & Pat Shields and Dick Sullivan put in many hours trying to make this a great representation of our church family. We hope you will enjoy it.
