this morning. Please fill out a Visitor Connect card, these are
found either on the entrance table or in the pew rack in front of
you. Completed cards will be collected along with the offering
today.
Sunday School
All are welcome to attend Sunday School before worship
beginning at 8:45; classes are available for both children and
adults.
Holy Communion
Those who are baptized and believe that Jesus Christ, crucified
and risen, is truly present in, with, and under the forms of bread
and wine for the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation, are
welcome to the Lord’s Table. Please let the Pastor know that you
wish to receive this gift of life by holding out your open hands. If
you desire to drink the wine from the common cup, please
proceed to the left chalice after receiving the wafer. If you prefer
to dip the wafer into the wine, please proceed to the right chalice
after receiving the wafer. You are encouraged to bring young
children forward for a blessing. The sign for a blessing is folded
