Dear Families,

Happy Wednesday!! Fall Kickoff is almost here! Read about the details and upcoming events below.

This Sunday

Join us for our Sunday School Kickoff and Nursery Open House at 10am!! 

We will meet on the Courtyard Playground (the one with the green, rubber ground) to enjoy doughnuts, fellowship, and an inflatable slide! A Special Blend will be in the Welcome Center providing coffee and you can drop into the Nursery to meet the staff any time during the 10am hour. **If it rains, we will move to the rear of the Life Center. Doughnuts, coffee, and nursery open house will still happen! We won’t be able to have the slide, but we’ll have some other activities. Decision will be made by 5pm on Saturday.

Two worship services this Sunday – 9am Rejoice! and 11am Sanctuary. Nursery care will be available during both services. 

**Can’t make it to the Nursery Open House? Check out the attached information sheet!
