It was beautiful to see some of our kids (Beau, Jane, Nash, Booker) playing so enthusiastically together last Wednesday!

Addi, Audi, and Sayvion are seen having a great time playing on the new Common Ground swingset. We offer our enthusiastic "thanks" to those who donated the swingset and to Paul, Drew, & Jeremy who installed it last Saturday (the kids obviously love it)!

Pictured below is a group of our seniors (apx 15) who met for lunch at the Mountain Lake Lodge for their periodic "Birthday Bash"

“The seniors have equipped several diaper bags (two of which were made by Carolyn Moore) for young parents to use during worship service. They are in the nursery room.  Please return the bags & quiet toys, but keep any pacifiers, teethers, or burp cloths you’ve used.  Also, the nursery is equipped with diapers in sizes NB, 1, 2, 3, & 4.”
