The flowers for Sunday's worship service are given by Mike Flatt in memory of his mom and dad. Flowers also are given by Wendy Ciccodicola and family in memory of Wendell Hearn Hester.
Special Thanks:
Every Sunday at Asbury, there are people who work behind the scenes to help make the day meaningful and wonderful for all of us and our visitors. We thank those unsung heroes of faith—our hospitality team, ushers, greeters, connectors, nursery workers, and children's church teachers.
