Haven’t read through the whole Bible?: A little overwhlemed at the task? well, 2012 is the year to do it! Nathan Bingham has posted a variety of Bible-reading plans that will help you in this endeavor. Check them out here. Don’t think you can stick to a plan? Ask a friend to do it with you! Happy Reading!

Coffee Hour: Thanks to all of those who have helped with coffee hour in the last year. It is an important part of our Sunday morning worship and fellowship time. Please plan on doing your part in the new year by signing up to host a 2012 coffee hour. We need 2-4 families each time to help out with planning the snack, serving and cleaning up so there is a job for each of you to do. The church can help with financial assistance to cover costs for the snacks if you need it. Please sign up for this ministry or speak with Kay Seaman or Virginia Wetherbee for more information.
