Dear Friends,

Wow, what a kickoff to our church year! We had a blast at the Ingathering Picnic, and it was amazing to see our church buzzing with energy as our religious education classes got underway!

Our church leadership just wrapped up a retreat where we dreamt big and set some super exciting goals for the year. We’re all about making it easier for you to get involved and ramping up our volunteer spirit!

Our ministerial search is rolling full steam ahead, and your input is key. If you haven’t filled out the search team’s survey yet, now’s the time—your thoughts matter!

And get ready for a bright future! Our solar installation is kicking off in a few weeks, so keep an eye out for those solar panels.

One of our big goals is to add a kitchen, which is a bit of a puzzle since it involves moving things around without a building expansion. We want to hear from you on the best way to make this happen. Join us for a Town Hall meeting on Sunday, September 22, to dive into the details and share your ideas. Since the kitchen will likely take over the nursery’s spot, we also need to dream up a new home for the nursery. We’ll be reaching out to gather your thoughts on the kitchen project in fun and creative ways this fall!

Save the date for our Community Participation event on Sunday, October 27, right after worship. It’s going to be a great chance to brainstorm how we can build an even stronger, more connected community!

On a more serious note, to keep everyone safe, we’re installing security cameras and tightening access to the building. If you lead a group and don’t yet have a key card, please contact the church administrator to get one. On Sundays, our friendly greeters will be at the doors to welcome you.

Thank you for bringing your energy and enthusiasm to our church. Together, we’re making it a vibrant and welcoming place for everyone!

With hope and love,

Marylin Huff
