FIRST COMMUNION, BIBLES & NEW MEMBERS

We received 18 new members on Christ the King Sunday, November 23rd. We are delighted to welcome this wonderful group to our congregation.

We also welcomed 5 children to the Lord's Table to the first time. They have each completed a course of instruction with their parents and have created a poster showing their excitement for the event.
