Do you love the challenge of a treasure hunt?
Then come join the fun at the Library for Peace!
A treasure hunt for book titles has been created just for you, using clues about fairly well-known
authors. Come see how well-read you are. To participate, come to the library after the
9:00 am service any Sunday in October and pick up your clue sheet!
The library is open immediately following the service until 11:40 am.

ATTENTION!
A fun opportunity to serve is available.
The Children, Youth and Family Team invites those who enjoy being with our amazing children to
consider helping us on an occasional and/or regular basis on Sunday mornings.
We need a cadre of folks who can be available to substitute as teacher or aide in classrooms once in
a while. This might mean helping with a specific project or “running” snacks to various rooms, or sharing a special story or idea you have when
one of our regular team is absent (which doesn’t happen very often!).
Please sign in on the Ritual of Participation pads, or contact Judy (721-6632). Chris (419-1871)
or Shar (360-4855185) to find out more.
