Reflections- "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." - Hebrews 11:1

 

THE PASTOR'S PERSPECTIVE

 

In order to help our current eldership to better shepherd the entire congregation, our church board, per our by-laws, have appointed Audy Barnett and Woody Sanders to serve as elders for the remainder of this year until our annual congregational meeting in December when election of elders and deacons takes place.  Our current church board  consists of:  Elders- Audy Barnett, John Borcherding, Keith Denny and Woody Sanders.  

Deacons- Gary Enderle, Rex Gay, Steve Kuehnel, George Price and Chris McMullin

 

         Due to its lack of use, the church board decided to sell the church van.  We sold the van this week.  Most of the money we received from the selling of the van was used to install a new heat pump system at the church parsonage.

 

         VBS  starts this Sunday!

 

 

           Grace & Peace,

 

           Dennis
