Grow-One Sunday is May 19!

Grow-One Sunday is the theme of this year’s stewardship campaign which encourages each of us to increase our giving by 1% of our income (Grow-Toward-Tithing) or to Grow-A-Step in the dollar amount of our choosing.  Please plan to be present on May 19 to complete and dedicate your estimate of giving card during our worship service.  We need EVERY MEMBER on the team.  Let’s all GROW (at least ONE) together!
