Ideas for items include bagels/cream cheese, fruit, baked goods, breakfast casseroles, cold drinks, etc. Please let us know what you can bring, and how often (weekly, 2x’s/month, monthly, etc.) If you have any questions, please speak with Larry Spears.
We are re-starting our Lay Eucharistic Ministry to Hamilton Grove Care & Rehabilitation Center – We will lead worship and administer communion every first and third Sunday of each month to the facility’s geriatric, infirm, and convalescing patients.

COVID shots are welcomed but not mandatory. Please speak to Larry Spears or Dean John if you are interested in serving this community.
We are in need of 1-2 Greeters on Sunday mornings – if you would like to sign up, there is a clipboard on the literature table in the main hallway outside of Synod Hall. If you have any questions, please speak with Margaret Nartey.
