Announcements
It is our pleasure to welcome back to our pulpit, Ray Crocker. Ann and Harry will return from vacation this evening.
There is a community Patriotic Cantata under the direction of Alan Amy that will perform on July 11 at Townville Old Home Days in the elementary school. It's a 30-minute cantata. Practices are Monday nights from 7-8 pm at the Townville Baptist Church. We need sopranos, altos, tenors and bass. All are welcome.
Our Food For Thought outreaches continue to feed 93 kids every weekend at our beloved Maplewood Elem School and approximately 12 families a week at our rural food pantry. No questions asked. We Bring His Food and His Presence. Thank you for your compassion.
