Deacon Candidates' Stories

Last week you were able to hear Emily Schissler's Gospel Story. This week...

 Let's Go Camping!!
| |
| For the past three summers we have "canceled" corporate worship on
one Sunday morning to go camping together as a family! This year will
be no different! We will be transplanting our church for a weekend to Potato Creek State Park in North Liberty, IN. Last year sixty-five people roughed it in tents and/or campers. We were able to laugh and eat together, build community, and start an impromptu choir. We built memories!
REGISTRATION FORMS are due to Sarah Phillips by Sunday, June 28. |
