Announcements

• VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: Friday afternoons is bulletin folding day. Please let Karen Schmidt-Dill know if you can come and help. Help is also needed for putting together the ENCOUNTER and getting that ready for mailing the last week of each month. Sign-up sheet in the back of the church is available. There may be other projects occasionally also that you could help with. Thanks.
• COMMUNION PREPARERS NEEDED: People to bring bread and grape juice for the first Sunday of each month for communion are desperately needed. PLEASE sign up in ADVANCE if you are able to bring and prepare/clean-up afterwards. If you don’t wish to help distribute the elements that is alright, just let the ushers of the day know.
