| April 10, 2016 We are only a few weeks away from our annual I Love my Church Sunday. This is always a fun and exciting time for our church family as we invest in the future of our church. There are three events in which I want to encourage you to participate: we will have our I Love My Church Banquet, Friday, April 22nd. Sunday morning, April 24th, we will receive our annual Vision Pledge, a yearly commitment for our building fund that enables us to make additional payments on our church building loan. Finally, that Sunday evening we will have our Project Offering to remodel our youth building. As always this will be a time of family fun and giving to a specific and particular need. All these events are part of making great memories and investing in a bright future for our church.
