Double-Check Your Information
from Jonathan Silk, Communications Manager
The photo directory is in the final stage of
development, with layout and design almost
complete. However, there is still time to
double-double check contact information.
If you have moved, changed your email, or do
or do not want your cell number listed,
please let us know.
A printout of the most current directory is
at the church office desk in a binder. Please
check your listing in person, or call the the
church office (776-4580) or email Jonathan
with changes.
We love the smiling faces, and want the new
directory to be as accurate as one tracking
500 bodies in motion can be! The tentative
distribution
date for the new directory is August.

the Benediction ending with the Lighting of
the Chalice and the Prelude.
Thanks to artists Sonnie Willis and John
Steele for sharing their visions of the day.
