We are in need of some extra volunteer help at the church. Zach Taylor will put out a sign-up sheet for volunteers to help clean the church. Even when Dorothy recovers and is back home, she will not return to clean. If you have any questions, please see Zach or Melissa Taylor. Lisa Jewell also will now be teaching both children's Sunday school classes. She could probably use someone to help with the children, crafts, keeping attention focused, etc. Our Sunday School Board is down two members, including our chair, right now. If you are interested in serving on the Sunday School Board, please see Pastor Laura or Debbie Mitchell. The Sunday School Board meets quarterly on the third Tuesday of the month. The next meeting is at 7:00 p.m. Tuesday, May 19.
