Praise Group
Doug has alerted us that changes
may be coming at his job that will
make him unavailable some Sunday
mornings. The Worship and Music
Committee would like to form a
Praise Group for times when Doug
cannot play. If you play an
instrument or sing and would be
interested in being part of the group
please contact Dianne Fett at 286-
1367 or aldiann@verizon.net. We
are not sure how large the group will
be or what instruments we will use,
so after we have candidates we will
have a better feel for where we are
going with this group.
