Mission Project for July -- Saturday, July 29th Our church’s mission project for July will be to help with some light cleaning projects at the Elizabeth and Tab Williams Adult Day Center. These tasks will include window washing, cleaning light fixtures and cleaning rooms. Our project will take place Saturday, July 29th from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM. We will meet at the church at 8:30 AM to carpool over. We need at least 5 volunteers to make this project successful. Here is a little information about this program which is part of Senior Services: When memory loss occurs, many homebound seniors avoid socialization and become more isolated. In Forsyth County, those living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, have a better choice. The award-winning Elizabeth and Tab Williams Adult Day Center provides a safe, fun, and structured day program that brings meaning and friendship to each participant in a nurturing environment. Please sign-up for this project on the signup sheets located in the Narthex and Fellowship Hall entrance. If you have questions, please call John Golden at 336408-0517. 2018 Moravian Daily Texts – Orders Due Wednesday, August 2nd It is time to order the 2018 Moravian Daily Texts. If you would like to purchase one or more Daily Texts, fill out an order form (located in the Narthex and at the Fellowship Hall entrance) and turn into the office no later than Wednesday, August 2nd. Money is collected in the fall when they arrive. Homemade Ice Cream / Supper / Andrew René Concert Sunday, August 13, 2017 PRAYER CONCERNS: Lori Barnett, J.D.
