Annual All-Church Meeting

Wednesday, May 29th at 7pm

=======================

Each year the entire church community is invited to gather together for an evening of celebrating what God has been doing, to pray together, and to talking about the mission and vision of our church.

It's also a chance for current church members to affirm new members, hold elections to church leadership, and affirm of the operating budget.

This year's Annual General Meeting will take place on Wednesday, May 29th at 7pm in the Auditorium.

You can now view the 2013 AGM Magazine entitled, "God's Kingdom Come" online, including summaries from many of the ministries of the church and insights into where God is moving us as a community of faith.  Click HERE to view the 2013 AGM Magazine.

Our church library is a fantastic place to find books, DVD's and reference material for your entertainment, for your family, and for your personal spiritual growth!

Each year the Library gives the entire church a chance to purchase books that we want to add to the library.  This year it's happening on Sunday, June 2nd.

Between and after each of the gatherings you can view and purchase books and DVDs for our library at great prices.  Plus, with your purchase you get the privilege of being the first person to check the book or DVD out of the library!

See you there!
