Please remember to bring a non-perishable food item with you each Sunday when you come to church. We'll see to it that your donations are delivered to the Pyle Center where they'll be distributed to needy Sussex Countians. Make sure to check the expiration dates printed on your contributions.
Save this date - July 15, 2019. Our missionary family, the Zimmermans, will be visiting SMBTS that day. We'll let you know the time when it's finalized. Plan on hearing the takes from Nepal that Mark, Deidre, Zachary, and Benjamin will be bringing with them.
