(REPRINT FROM LAST WEEK) OUR THANKS to everyone who helped get our new pews here and who helped move our old ones out. It was a lot of work and we want you to know that you are appreciated. We will be doing additional work on the new pews as time allows. More on the pews later.
THE FUTURE OF GSLC-OUR CHILDREN Help wanted. There will be a Christian education planning session this Wednesday evening at 5:30 pm. I’d like to see all parents, teachers, volunteers, potential volunteers, and those with any ideas at the meeting. We’ll try to work out a calendar for the year, including VBS. All input and ideas are welcome, and I promise you won’t get roped into anything!
