Memorial Plaques

In the narthex of the church, there are plaques honoring those who served in World Wars I and II. We need to update those plaques and we need to honor those who served in Vietnam, Korea, and the two Gulf Wars. We are gathering names for this purpose. If you have a name that should be included on any of these plaques, please contact Carroll Moore.

Johnnie Ruth was in the hospital earlier this week but has now returned home. Please remember Johnnie and all our sick and shut-ins in your prayers.

If you have questions or comments, email Tony Grant
