Renewal Facilitation Team
  
Thank you for all those who participated in the last two sets of congregational interviews.  For those of you unable to attend either of the last two Sundays, April 7th & 14th, during the service we discussed Wows, Assets & Passions of the congregation.  Members answered 3 questions each week and turned them in for the Renewal Team to study.  If you would like to participate still or have thought of additional answers you would like the Team to have, please fill out a white half sheet with "Wows" printed at the top and/or the purple half sheet with "Assets/Passions" printed at the top and turn it into the church office or any of the Renewal Team members.
   
We will continue interviewing the congregation this Sunday, April 21. We will look for what you see are the Needs of the congregation. These questions are on the blue half sheet. As we did this past week, we will discuss the questions following the 8:30 worship during coffee hour.  The 10:30 worship will be shortened and the discussion will take place in the sanctuary. It is VERY IMPORTANT that we have your participation in these interviews.  If you cannot make it to worship please speak to one of the Team members to see how you can be part of this process.
  
Team members are: Linnie Dumas, Ray Medders, Sean Nonn, Jill Setterlin, Judy Siordia, and Pastor Thad.
