-There are 2 ways for our church to receive your offering this year. You can visit our
website at: https://www.gehmanmennonitechurch.org/give.html OR continue to use the
offering envelope system. If you have used the envelope system this past year, the 2024
envelopes are in your church mailbox. If you are interested in using the offering envelopes
for 2024, please talk to Lucy Hollinger. Thank you.
-We are in need of volunteers to clean the church for the next two months while a
permanent cleaner can be secured. If you are willing to serve our church in this way,
there is a sign-up sheet on the Welcome station in the Narthex. For more information
please see either Loretta or Steve.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Colton Carvell on Wed.
