Why are we changing mes? The Worship Service Times Task Force studied how we can support worship en‐ hancement, the top priority of our five‐year Strategic Plan. They concluded that adjus ng mes helps make each worship service more meaningful, gives families the opportunity to worship together, and allows the whole church to be gathered during a common Sunday School hour.
When does the new schedule begin? Sunday, August 6, 2017
What should I expect from each hour?

The king of love my Shepherd is, whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am His, and He is mine forever. Where streams of living water flow, my ransomed soul He leadeth, and where the verdant pastures grow, with food celes al feedeth. Perverse and foolish o I strayed, but yet in love he sought me, and on His shoulder gently laid and home rejoicing brought me. In death's dark vale I fear no ill with Thee, dear Lord, beside me; Thy rod and staff my comfort s ll, Thy cross before to guide me. And so through all the length of days, Thy goodness faileth never; Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise within Thy house forever.
