I hope you all enjoyed the three day weekend!

As always, please let me know of any questions or concerns.

I am looking forward to seeing all of you Sunday morning as we are singing in church!  The children are singing at the 9:00 service.  You should arrive at 8:45.  See you Sunday!

Here is what we are working on this week:
