THANK YOU ~ for your prayers last week as I traveled nearly 400 miles from Buffalo to Albany with the Erie Canal Bike Tour.

Your contributions will go toward materials to help build the homes as well as for our travel costs. Checks may be made out to Doug Wilson, Paul Penner or to Habitat for Humanity and dropped off or mailed to the church office. Thanks for your help. Blessings, Doug

FREE TO GOOD HOME: I have a kitten that is “about” 12 weeks old that Pastor Ray found on his lawn. It was very small and scared then and we fostered it at our house for about a month. He is a white/gray tiger short haired kitty and he is super friendly...the kids have really loved up on him!!! We can’t keep him ...our dog would love to play with him in a “non-friendly” way. If you are interested in giving him a forever home, just let us know. Thanks...Kellie Milhollen
