Pastor Appreciation Month

The Church Board Stewards invite you to celebrate and appreciate our pastors and staff during the month of October. The staff members were asked to create Amazon wish lists so we can show them our support by purchasing items meaningful to them and their ministries. Please feel free to send a gift acknowledging their dedication to our church family.  These gifts can be sent anonymously if you wish. You will also find baskets located in the foyer for each staff member where you will be able to leave a note or token of appreciation.
Feel free to contact board stewards: Chris Rakoczy, Laura Zahm or Jean Gehrke if you have questions and THANK YOU!
