What do you think?
Take a look back at the Pastor’s Pages from May and June. If you no longer have a copy, you can find both pages on our website. Both pages invited your response (especially June’s), and Pastor Lynne would like to hear from you! J

Noon Hour Bible Study
Pastor Lynne is considering offering a noon hour Bible study beginning in September. The study would be on either Tuesdays or Wednesdays at noon and would be “bring your own” bag lunch. The length of time would depend on people’s work schedules. Please let Pastor Lynne know if you would be interested, as well as which day works best for you,
Bathroom Reno’s
As you may have noticed, volunteers had been hard at work on the upstairs bathroom at the church—A big thank you to
Dennis Dreikluft and Don Edel who had contributed many hours of work! J

Looking ahead to fall 2011
Often one of the favorite parts of the national youth gatherings is the skits done by the drama teams. This year, National Youth Gathering drama team members Caroline Wintoniw and Martine Teetaert along with local drama leader Barret Miller are leading the Thanksgiving Retreat and would love to tell you all about the process of creating dramas. We will even be writing some scripts to use throughout the next year!
Don’t like the spotlight? All dramas need writers, directors, behind the scenes extras…you!
