If you ordered a printed copy of our new photo directory and have not yet picked it up, please stop by the church office during the week or on Sunday to retrieve your copy. We have extras if you did not sign up in advance, please just list your name so we know if we need to print additional copies. There is a suggested $2 donation to recover copier and paper expenses.
