GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Dear Congregation,
Through some communication issues we are still 1 Service Deacon short. The Service Deacons are responsible for equipping Westend to join God’s work of fixing what’s broken in this world. They empower us to lives of service and perform acts of mercy and care on behalf of Westend. Those who serve as Service Deacons are generally blessed with gifts of mercy, service, and compassion.
If you feel God calling you to fulfill this role, please contact Nichole in the office or Doug Stapley.
There will be no CEMC meeting in June!
Just a reminder: There will be no Children’s Worship for July or August. Nursery will still be available.
Save the date! Sunday Sept. 26th we will be having a church picnic at Millennium Park to celebrate our 30th Anniversary!
Do you have pictures or fun memories from the church merger & beyond? Send them to us! office@westendcrc.org
