For more information, click UNITED IN BLUE.

If you did not pick up a blank form, these will also be available Sunday or you can obtain them in the church office. The Emergency forms are going to be kept private and on file at church and will only be used in the event of a medical emergency. We need one form filled out per person. Thank you for your assistance in caring for our congregation!
