ANNOUNCEMENTS
// Nursery Volunteers Needed
Our nursery is growing in number and we need help in caring for all of our little ones on Sundays. We’d love to utilize the multiple rooms we have, but we need more volunteers to be able to make that happen.
We have a need for 6-8 individuals to serve on Sundays. It can be once a month, or as many times a month as you’d like. A background check is required.
If you’re interested in serving in the nursery, please contact Mandie Nolte at amandabarrack@gmail.com.

It’ll be a time to build community and get to know other college students at First Church. There will be all sorts of games, football on the big screen, and pizza. Invite a friend or two and come hangout!
