Notes from the Children’s Ministry
Acolyte Dinner & Meeting
On Wednesday, August 2nd at 5:30pm-7pm we will be having an Acolyte Appreciation Dinner & Meeting. This is open to all who have served as acolytes throughout this past year & those 8 and up (children & youth) that would like to start serving as an Acolyte. We will start with a meal to show how grateful we are for these young people who accept the call to serve in the church. Afterwards we will have some time to review, practice, & teach our new acolytes. We will also be signing up for months to serve so parents please arrive a few minutes early to pick up so you can help choose a month that is best for your family!
