Report from ASP (7/6/22)

Things are going well.  Everyone had stayed injury-free to this point.  It has been a particularly wet trip, afternoon rain everyday so far!  Rodney’s team is finishing dry wall in a bathroom.  Chris’s team is replacing a roof on a home.  Rob’s team is working to reinforce a floor that was unsafe.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

September 19th – 21st, 2022: A pictorial directory is a powerful tool in our church to help each of us know each other better. Our last directory is now outdated, and it is time for a new one. Please make an appointment to have your picture taken by clicking HERE or by emailing the church at office@mumctville.org and someone will get back to you. Your participation will help the church and yourself. Every family photographed for the directory will receive a copy of the directory and an 8×10 portrait at no cost. So please, sign-up today!

Nido & Mariana Qubein Children’s Museum

If you would like join in on the visit to the children’s museum, please contact Lynda Hepler on or before Sunday, July 10th.
