Thank you to all volunteers in 2018. The 2019 Volunteer Roster will be distributed in January.
Tonight – “A Light When All Others Seem Dark” offers that opportunity to catch your breath, cast off your burdens, and allow the tranquility and calm of God’s love, peace, joy, and hope wash over you. This Candlelight service offers quiet music, thoughtful reflections, and a chance to light your own candle. Everyone is encouraged to come, rest, renew and relax for a time. Thursday, December 20th @ 7:00pm @ Saint Andrews Presbyterian Church. What is your reason for needing A Light When All Others Seem Dark?
A sincere thank you from the Mission Development and Social Action Committee to all who so generously brought gifts and vouchers for the two families supported through our angel tree and to Kathie and the junior choir for the children’s stocking stuffing with their gifts. All have been delivered and the families are most thankful.
