We hope you can join us for a fellowship meal following this morning’s service.  Also, plan to linger casually over coffee and dessert for a brief family meeting.  If you have any questions or concerns about our life in the church, feel free to raise them during our informal time together.

We’ve been invited to join the Fluvanna Community Church as they celebrate Pastor Dayle Keefer’s 40th anniversary in ministry!  An open house is scheduled from 1-4pm.  If you’d like to carpool after the meeting, let Derek know.

Be praying with the Nominating Committee as it works to prepare a slate of candidates to be considered for office at the Annual Meeting in February 2017.  To submit names, see Olive, Fred or Derek.
