I will be on vacation October 11-18th. Kim Neumar and Marge Worley will be covering the office while I am gone. Because of the dates we are gone for I will need November schedules by October 4th from our worship participant schedulers and the Grace News will be going out on Thursday the 19th instead of Tuesday the 17th. Thank you!
