Here is the page describing our attire choices

Parking

We have a challenging, but necessary, parking issue. We need to move our cars out of the church parking lot to one of the two lots shown (Business & Collection Services or police department) on this map AFTER 5:15 p.m. That means you will need to dress, eat and move your cars in the time between the close of the rehearsal and when you are needed to be ready for the worship concert. Please familiarize yourself with this map and be ready to move your car so our guests can find parking.

The place to unload into the sanctuary is also indicated

THANK YOU

Meals

If you want a meal at the church, YOU MUST RESERVE THE MEAL ON THIS FORM AHEAD OF TIME. This week there is no charge. The church is covering the cost of the meals for us!

Lunch: A bag lunch with half of a pimento cheese sandwich, half of a chicken salad sandwich, chips, fruit (probably grapes), cookie or brownie, and tea and lemonade to drink

Dinner: Ham, string beans, potato salad, dinner rolls, assorted pound cake for dessert. Tea, lemonade, water, and coffee to drink.

Memory! TAKE NOTE!

You should have the following songs thoroughly memorized for THIS worship concert: Ascription of Praise, Endless Praise,Who Can Satisfy & My Jesus. Additionally Rejoice & Revelation 19:1 will need to be memorized before the November annual meeting. It is obvious if you are using your music while everyone else is singing from memory. Please spend time getting these songs ready. You will have lyrics on the back screen (do not rely on these for November).

The ensemble should have their song memorized.
