Flowers:

The flowers for the service were given in honor of Cynthia Herold’s birthday by her family.

Special Thanks:

Every Sunday, as we return to in-person worship services after the pandemic, there are people who work behind the scenes to help make each service meaningful and wonderful for all of us and our Live Stream visitors.
We thank those heroes of our faith: control room techs, videographers, video editors, sound editors, font editors, and many others.
