Building Project Update - The trustees want to thank everyone for their donations supporting the building maintenance projects.  $170,000 has been collected so far which should be enough to cover repairs to the exterior of the church. Repairs are going well and are on schedule to be completed this fall. We plan to wait on replacing the hall carpet until sufficient funds are available. Contributions can still be made online or by sending a check to Bro. Harold Sauder.

College Student Care Packages - As a church body we would like to remember our college student's by praying for them, encouraging them and sending them a small care package. This was a huge blessing to each student last year who received a package. If you would like to participate, you can pick up an envelope from the back hall bulletin board regarding your college students name and information.
