EYC Meal Rotation
Thank you for volunteering in this capacity! We will contact you the week of, as a reminder and to let you know the current average in your preparations for provision of the meal. Please note, that we want to keep it simple for you. For example, lasagna, spaghetti, tacos, chicken and chips... are a few examples of easier "bulk" meals.
All meals will be served in the Undercroft and can be set up anytime before 5:30pm. -

Join us for Sunday School in the Youth Suite at 9:00am! Grab a donut from upstairs, and come on down! This program is for both Middle and High School.
Inspired by the scripture from 3 John 2, "Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, just as it is well with your soul," we will take the time to check in with each other; socially, emotionally, physically and mentally, before studying spiritually, the Scriptures appointed for each Sunday.
