Pastors’ Breakfast & Fellowship - June 10!
Thursday Mornings, CBA, 8:00-9:00 AM

We are planning to start our Pastors’ Breakfast back on June 10, 2021.
We will serve coffee, and if you would

I have certainly missed this time together and look forward
to the fellowship time we will share on Thursday mornings.
