A WORD FROM OUR LAY LEADER, ERIC ZIMMERMAN
It's the time of year when the Staff Parish Relations Committee invites everyone to show thanks to our staff for all they do for our church, our congregation, and our community. We have a fantastic team in Tracie, Erick, Greg, Beckie, Phillip and Katie!
For those of you that worship in person, we will have a special basket set up in the sanctuary near the sound booth for the next two Sundays where you can drop off a thank you card and/or a monetary gift. We'll have blank thank you cards available, or you can bring one from home. Any monetary gifts will be consolidated and shared amongst the staff members, so if you would, please make sure any donations are in a separate envelope from a thank you card.
For those that are worshipping online, you can mail or drop off your cards or donations to the church in care of Eric Zimmerman, Lay Leader. Again - any monetary gifts will be consolidated and shared amongst the staff members.
We ask that any cards or donations be dropped off or mailed for receipt no later than Sunday, October 24. Let's show them how much we appreciate them. Thank you for your support of our wonderful Grace team!
- Eric Zimmerman, Lay Leader
