Worship Time Change, 10:30 am
Summer is over! Be sure to mark your calendar and plan on our worship service moving back to 10:30 am the first Sunday after Labor Day, September 9. This worship time will continue throughout the school year, into early June.
Back to School: Backpack Blessing
Sunday, September 9 will be our annual Backpack Blessing for kids. That day there will be a special blessing of all school-aged children and their parents as part of our regular 10:30 am worship service. Children are invited to bring along their school backpack for a special Backpack Blessing Event. Let’s send our congregation’s kids into the new school year assured of God’s promises and our loving support! Be sure to join us and to include all of our young people in your prayers as they plan to go back to school.
New Member Sunday: Coming this Fall:
On a Sunday later this Fall (on a date that works well for you) we will be receiving new members during “New Member Sunday.” If you like our mission and vision and would like to be a part of it, we'd love to have you join.
If you are currently a member of another church you can join by transferring your membership to Maple Leaf. If you are not a member anywhere else, there are two ways to join. If you are not baptized, one way to join is to be baptized. If you have already been baptized, great! Any Christian baptism is sufficient. If you are already baptized you may join by “Affirmation of Faith.” This simply means that you affirm your Christian faith publicly through the act of joining a church. If you are new to being a Christian or would just like additional instruction please contact Pastor Julie.
Please let Pastor Julie know if you’d like to join. If you have further questions please do not hesitate to ask. 524-2448 and
