On June 28, the annual church yard sale will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Currently, the yard sale planning committee is asking folks to start bringing items for this annual fundraiser.
They are asking for things that are “clean and in relatively good condition”.
Donated items may be brought to the church during regular office hours which are Monday through Thursday from 8 to 11:30 a.m. Items should be placed in the Scout Hall.

Looking ahead, the church is already planning Vacation Bible School which is set for Monday through Friday, July 21-25 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the church. Wesley United Methodist and First English Lutheran Church will join in the festivities.
This year’s theme is “God’s Big Backyard”.
Beginning each day at Backyard Bash, backyard buddies Stan, Cooper, Alex and Nick discover how much fun service can be and they will challenge kids to serve their families, friends, neighbors, communities and Jesus.
The children at Bible School will also experience God’s word at Backyard Bible Club, meet real life servants at Community Corner and enjoy fun-filled crafts, snacks, games and music.
Classes will be available for preschoolers, elementary students, pre-teens and teens.
More information will be release in the upcoming weeks regarding Bible School.
