Updates to the Church Website
The “News” tab is now the “Resources” tab. You still have access to Events, Weekly Bulletin, and Opportunities; the pages “Sermon Materials” (SM) and “Christian Education Materials” (CEM) have now been added under the tab. The SM page is for supplemental materials and guides that the Sunday speakers have provided for you to download to either follow along during the sermon or revisit the sermon on your own time. The CEM page operates similarly to the SM page but with materials regarding our Christian Education sessions on Wednesday nights…
