Thank you to Dianne Swink, Laura Hotinger, Sarah, the praise team and the choir for leading music Sunday morning. Dianne wants to thank everyone for the contributions of clothes and supplies for North Carolina flood victims. Twenty bins, plus bags and boxes, were loaded into a full tractor-trailer!
Thank you to all who came out for the Clark Christmas open house. What a joy to fellowship with everyone. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to purchase a gift for the Angel Tree Prison Fellowship. Please bring wrapped gifts to church on Sunday so they can be delivered next week.
