JUNE NEWS

THANK YOU SMALL GROUP LEADERS!!!

Thank you to the thirty-three adults who volunteered to teach our children from the age of 2 year olds through 5th grade all year long. We are so grateful for the commitment and dedication you gave to our children. We pray for you and your family to have a fun and safe summer.

ATTENTION ALL PARENTS!!

Leaders needed once a month for the summer in the Small Group 9:45 classes!!


We are seeking new teaching teams just for the summer. We ask that each parent please, please, volunteer to help lead your child’s Small Group 9:45 Class. We are working hard to give our teachers that have taught all year long, a well deserved break. We will gladly train and help you each week. Our school year Small Group classes will end on May 31st and summer classes start June 7th. We are continuing the same curriculum throughout the summer and need teaching teams to lead. Talk to Angie or your child’s small group leader now and they will be glad to show you all that is required.
