~First Communion Classes will be starting. We invite any third graders and older youth who are either new to the congregation or did not participate in their third grade year are also welcomed to learn about this Holy Sacrament.
Our first communion classes will begin Sunday February 28th and go for 4 weeks ending on Sunday March 21st. Classes will be after second service, so please bring a sack lunch. We ask that parents be present with the youth during classes (as parents are the biggest faith influences on our youth today). Pastor Ed Smith, Brian Johnson and Anne Kilbourn will be our teachers again this year. If you are interested and would like to participate in this class please contact Deaconess Ann Maki ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
