The family reunions, vacations, graduation parties, picnics, camping, boating, car shows, cruises, days at the beach, all compete for our time. It was so very pleasing to see so many people take part in the life of the church on the weekend of June 23rd. Two families opened their doors to the young people performing a concert at the Washington Avenue Christian Church. Ten church people took part in an all day, into the evening, project of putting a new roof on Jim Swartz’s home. Twenty four church members from NECC took part in the Car/Bike cruise to Milan for lunch and back home by way of Norwalk. In addition to the twenty four NECC members there were eight from Columbia United Methodist Church. It was a wonderful day spent with good friends from the church. I appreciate all those who worked so very hard to make the events such successful experiences. Text Box: Save The Date!

Text Box: HEADS UP VISIONING TEAM August 21st is the next Visioning Team meeting in the Visioning process lead by Dr. Hamm.
