Covid Halts GRIEFSHARE for Now
Due to a flare-up of Covid in Polk County schools, GRIEFSHARE will be suspended temporarily, Lonney McDonald announced on August 29. The support group sessions will resume as soon as it is deemed safer for all. Thank you for helping us protect each other.
Here’s Last Ephesians Study
The subject of this session is Ephesians 6:10-20. May the Holy Spirit inform our hearts and minds as we contemplate how we, as a church, can put on God’s “armor.”
