Treehouse Treasures Our church family is growing! Many babies have come and will be coming in the next few weeks/months. We would love to bless our new moms with a gift bag filled with newborn items (diapers, wipes, baby bath items, onesies, gowns, or swaddlers). Amy Prebil organizes this and has set up a Treasure Chest back in our nursery area to accept item donations.

If you or someone you know from our congregation could use some gifts this Christmas, please complete a form (found at the Hospitality Booth) and place in the offering or Connection Box. We will take nominations through NOVEMBER 9th. |
