Weekly Reminders:
Baby Rose. Before coming
back to church with your new baby, please call the church
office by Tuesday so we can order a rose honoring your
baby.
Baby Bulletin Board. Please
send Ann a picture of your baby with the full name and
date of birth on the back if he/she is younger than 1
year, and we don’t have one. Everyone enjoys looking
at the newest additions to our church family.
Pagers. We now have
pagers for the Nursery area. Please sign your children
in using the pager system if they are under the age of
1 year. If your child is
“uneasy” in the nursery area and the pager
helps, please use one. It takes children time to adjust
to a new setting. Our visitors should always use a pager
because we don’t know the babies and it is nice
to be able to get in touch if we have a question. The
pager system is located in the Nursery area and is staffed
by adult volunteers.
Ink Cartridges. Bring
your “empty” ink cartridges to us. There
is a bin outside The Mouse Pad for you to drop them off
or take them to the office. They will be recycled
so that we can purchase additional materials for the
computer.
Background Checks. Background
checks are mandatory for people involved in Children’s
Ministry. If you have not completed an application,
please
see Ann as soon as possible. Mike Moses is handling the
background checks. Safe
Sanctuary training is typically held the 3rd Wednesday
of the month from 6:15-7:00 in the Sanctuary. All who
work with children are required to attend and complete
the volunteer application. This is for the safety of
our children as well as the safety of those working with
children. |
