Announcements for 14 May
Hi Everyone,
It was good to see so many of you at the picnic last week and at the Wednesday night gathering when the Vrooms were visiting. Please pray as the Session considers extending a call to Nathaniel to be our associate pastor and for the Vrooms as they consider making Sunnyvale their future home and ministry.
Sincerely,
Elder Lemen
