Will Wednesday Night Activites Continue Through the Summer?

Several people have expressed an interest in keeping Wednesday Night an active night at church...it's a great way to reach out to each other, as well as to the community around us. Ideas include playing basketball and opening up the "Underground" of the Education Building. A brainstorming session will be  held on Wednesday, May 5 at 7pm in the Library. Come and let us know your thoughts!
