NEWS AND NOTES

THANK YOU Turpin Mennonite Church for supplying the milk and juice for the See You At The Pole each year.  It means a lot that you help make this event a success each year.  Thank you for your support and prayers for FCA.

THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE is looking for nominations for treasurer for the 2019-2021 years now, to be proactive in preparing the future treasurer for this position.  If you would have interest in this office or would like to nominate someone for this office, please contact a Nominating Committee member, either Nick, Alan H., Dennis, Lynette, or Jerilee.

 

CEMENT WORK  for the restroom/nursery addition to the church will begin in 1-2 weeks.  Those who have pledge donations may begin sending donations at that time or when you pledged to give them.  Though we have met the amount needed to do the restrooms, there is still opportunity for those who have not pledged to make pledges to help with the costs of renovating the old bathrooms and classrooms.  There are pledge cards on the bulletin table for further pledges for these additional costs.

 

Please remember the following in your prayers:
