Requests from Christian Ed:

How would you like to help plan the worship and programming for WOW for 2012-13?  Are you willing to moderate a small group study?  We are looking for WOW help in these areas.  Please contact the church office or Lyn Oakley (lynfcpc@) or Darlene Miller (darlene.miller@) if you are interested in helping with either of these. 

We also are in need of someone to go around on Sunday morning and collect the Sunday School offering envelopes from the classrooms.  Again, contact Lyn, Darlene, or the church office if you can help or can share this job with another person.  Thanks!
