2. Sunday, January 28 - Family Recognition Service
This shortened afternoon church service is intended to recognize the new babies that have been born into our church during 2023.
While this is an encouragement to the parents to raise these children in God-fearing homes, it is also an opportunity and reminder to the entire church family to be involved in each other’s lives as we go through the passages of life.
