Sunday School Offering: This year, our Sunday School offerings will support Dana Frost, who has been attending our church since late Spring. Dana is a graduate of Moody Aviation (a branch of Moody Bible Institute) and is currently building flight hours at Proclaim Aviation Ministries in Worthington as she prepares to become a missionary pilot in East Africa. We would love to support her technical evaluation, which she will need to take to go overseas. We are excited for our Sunday School kids to personally connect with Dana, hear about her journey, and see firsthand where their offerings are going. Please keep Dana in your prayers as she continues her training and spreads God's word.
