2. Building Improvement Update
Work has started in the restrooms across from Pastor Derek's office. Work will begin on the sanctuary July 10th. We are planning a Night of Worship celebration for the re-opening of the Sanctuary August 5th.
3. Welcome
We are pleased to welcome as our new Preschool Director - Jennifer Guilliams. Jennifer has been with the school for a little while starting as a teacher here in Olathe and then taking on the role of the the director for the Gardner campus. She has been working as the interim director these past weeks so we are excited to have her officially in her new role. One of the first things she did upon officially taking the reins was to give the downstairs hallway a facelift. Go check it out when you can - the inspector from the state was here recently and really liked to new look.
Let Us Know...
Please be sure to fill out a Connect Card each week to let us know you were at church and how the staff can be praying for you. If you attend the first service drop it in the offering plate as it goes by. If you attend the second service you can put the Connect Card in the offering boxes at the back of the Sanctuary. You can also sign-up for Wednesday Night Supper that way. For those of you who regularly fill them out - THANK YOU!
Be sure to check the bulletin for the question of the week.
