FROM THE DIRECTOR
Dear Families,
     I really enjoyed seeing the children who came to Vacation Bible School last week.  We had fun singing songs, hearing Bible stories, doing crafts and playing with friends.
     Summer is a busy, but quiet time for me in the office, so please stop by and say hi.  There is someone in the office on Wednesday mornings definitely, but l am also around during irregular hours most other days.  Just call before you come.
      We are looking forward to seeing you in September if not before.  
      Have fun and be safe with your summer activities.

HELP OUT

Washing Toys 

Parents have been a great help to us in the past by taking home a box of toys, washing and sanitizing, then returning them the next week.  If you can do that, please pick up a box next time you are here.

Touch Up Painting, Furniture Cleaning

There are some several hour or several people jobs that would really be appreciated.  Walls get bumps and nicks.  Also we have some furniture with an accumulation of labels and stickers that needs some adhesive remover and lots of TLC. 
 
Yard Work
Raking, spreading mulch, hauling sand, spreading topsoil, putting in new plants.  Call or e-mail to get the details and then work at a time convenient to you.
