KIDS IN WORSHIP There are children’s Bibles, Bible story books and updated weekly sermon notes at the back of the sanctuary for your children to use during the sermon. There are also Learning & Sharing bags available. Please return bags, books and Bibles to the back of the sanctuary after worship. HEARING AIDES AVAILABLE Our sanctuary is equipped with assisted hearing devices for those who have a difficult time hearing. They are simple to use and very effective and are available from the sound booth at the back of the sanctuary. BIBLES AVAILABLE Did you forget your Bible? Part of fulfilling our mission statement is to purposefully get into the Word. Please follow along with the scripture reading today. There are Bibles under the seats and on the table at the back of the sanctuary. Pick up a Bible and be ready to follow along.
