It has been brought to the attention to the office that some of our emails are ending up in the Spam/Junk folders and some are coming through regularly. Please check your Spam/Junk folders if you have not received any emails from the church by Thursday. The Newsletter is emailed on Thursday mornings so you have at least one email a week that comes through possibly more but the newsletter definitely comes out once a week so if you do not receive chances are the emails are going into your Spam/Junk folder. You can indicate on your email that it is not Spam/Junk. Thank you and if you have any question questions please give the office a call or email.
