Newsletter: Our newsletter entitled "Connections"
is published monthly and it provides a link between members' homes and the church. Memorial
Gardens: Members involved with this ministry beautify our grounds and as a results, the greater community with floral
gifts from God's creation. Coffee Hour: Talking and eating together are an important
part of our fellowship. This is one reason the hour following worship services is so dear to us. Everyone can
take a turn as host. Mother Hen: The church offers this service to bridal couples.
A Mother Hen is a "behind the scenes" helping hand who comes to the church before the service, armed with
a basket of everything that might be needed, such as needle and thread, asprin, tissues, etc. The Mother Hen makes
sure the sanctuary is ready and even spreads the bride's train for that all important walk down the aisle. Baby Showers: For Faith Family members taking the next step in their
family, we host a coffee hour in their honor with a wishing well of gifts for the baby Publicity:
We make every effort to contact the greater community about any special events via the media
Directory: We publish a directory the first of each
year with the names, addresses, phone numbers and where applicable, email addresses of all our members. We also have
a section for "friends". This is where we list those friends who have moved out of the area, but still keep
in touch. There is also a section of "who do I call". In this section you will find the person to call
for whatever your need, whether it is to use the church facility for an event, put flowers on the alter, etc.

Email: We are now into the 21st Century.
We no longer use the prayer chain to get out the messages of prayers needed or information that the congregation needs to
have. We now have a group email and just one email will reach all but about 6 of our members. Those 6 are being
called by phone. Caregivers: These good people provide care and support
for Faith Family members who are going through difficult times by suppling meals at times of illness, a new baby, or a death
in the family. We also supply transportation to doctor appointments or therapy sessions. Card
Ministry: This ministry marks those important events in our lives, weddings, babies, graduations, as well as expressing
our concerns in times of illness and sympathy at the loss of a loved one. Photo Ministry: We
love pictures! We like to see that faces of our new members and commemorate baptisms and other special occasions and
events.
