Fourth of July Parade Everyone loves a parade! Participating in the Fourth of July Monument parade is a great way to show how much we love our God and our country! Our theme this year is “Don’t Miss the Boat.” We are looking for help building the float and would love 15 - 20 folks to walk in the parade and help hand out popsicles and “chilled,” unscented wet wipes to refresh spectators. Feel free to dress in RED, WHITE, & BLUE flair. Contact Cris Bonser at [email protected] for more information about this fun event!

WEEKLY UPDATE FROM THE FOC CALL COMMITTEE The Call Committee met on Wednesday, June 21, to finalize the evaluation criteria that will be used to narrow down the candidates following the completion of the questionnaires.

We have received 23 nominations! Each candidate has been sent a questionnaire to complete (responses are due to the Call Committee by Tuesday, July 11). Additionally, all 23 nomination forms have been submitted to the District for review and to obtain their biographical data. Upon reviewing the questionnaire responses and biographical data against the initial evaluation criteria we developed, we'll determine which candidates will be offered an interview. The next Call Committee meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 28, to review/discuss/evaluate any questionnaire responses that have been received.  If you have questions, please contact the Call Committee at [email protected].  

COMING SOON - LFS BACKPACK DRIVE
