Opportunity to Share: A member of our Advent Family needs help setting up housekeeping in a small apartment. If you have furnishings or other household items to share, please contact Carolyn Jones.

We also have two other opportunities to help. The Lohmans and the Sherefs will be moving into new homes. Please contact Dave Neely or John Stow if you can help with either of these moves.

Birthdays and Anniversaries: Help us update our lists of birthdays and anniversaries. Please review and revise lists posted on a bulletin board in the hallway.

Thanks from Pastor Williamson:Pastor sends his sincere gratitude for all the well wishes, cards, prayers, and encouragement from the folks at Advent. “And, thanks, too, for the anniversary card—so thoughtful.” Pastor and Jackie had a good visit with his mom (89) and family in MN. He is eager to start the new school year at Lumberton High School.
