A WARM AND CORDIAL WELCOME is extended to all who worship with us this morning. 

If you are a guest and do not have a church home, we hope you will give prayerful consideration to

becoming a part of our church family.  We invite you to unite with us by profession of faith,

reaffirmation of faith, or transfer of church letter.

 

MINISTRY OF FRIENDSHIP As the Friendship Register is passed during the Anthem,

each person (both guest and member) is asked to sign. If you are a first time guest, we ask that

you give us your address so that we can thank you for being our guest in worship.
