Automatic Pay for Church Pledge
From your bank
An easy way to pay your church pledge is through automatic bill payment at your bank. Set up the details with your bank either in person or online, then email Bookkeeper Amy Creasy to let her know your new arrangements. It's easy and a free service.

New Thursday Bible Study
Starting June 20, 2013

Thursday Morning Bible Study will meet again June 20, 2013 at 11:00 in the Parish Hall. The group will be studying the Book of Acts. This will be the start of the study of Acts, a great time to add the bible study to your weekly calendar.

Stewardship Committee
Needs your help
The Stewardship Committee is trying to update our church records.  They have posted a list of names, addresses, and phone numbers of members.  When you get a chance, please stop by the Parish Hall and check out the list. Corrections for your information can be made directly to the list.  If you see names on the list that you know have moved, or have transferred their membership, or you do not see your name on the list, please let a member of the Stewardship Committee know, or send an email to the church office.
