On Sunday, January 18th, Brad Wood (Executive Director of the Central Visitation Program) had a Minute for Ministry at our second service. Following his Minute for Ministry, some of you were interested in finding out more about the Central Visitation Program, which is a mission partnership of our church. We have pamphlets with information about this worthwhile program – one pamphlet describes the program and another pamphlet explains how you can help. The pamphlets can be found in the racks above the table in the east side of our Narthex.
