SBLC Confirmation Class Volunteers Needed
Hi congregations.
I am looking for volunteers to contribute afternoon tea for our Confirmation classes this year, held on Monday afternoons after school at Langmeil.
I’m hoping we have enough volunteers for a roster so it's only a few times a year.
Please email Rachel Brown at rachelabrown83@gmail.com if you'd like to be involved.
There are 20+ confirmands which is fantastic. Please keep them in your prayers.
