FYI – An OUB pictorial directory is in progress, so we’re

taking PICTURES! Over the next several weeks these

pictures will be taken during the Sunday School time slot.

If you do not currently attend Sunday School, please make a

point to show up during that time on a Sunday when we

could get your mug shot. See Tom or Cindi Keely and get a

date/time picked out. A face really helps others to be able

to know who you are and contributes to a sense of unity.

THANK YOU for helping to make this a painless process!

Come and get some BBQ chicken fresh from the grill this SATURDAY at the corner of Rt. 11 and Walter Ave. (Greencastle Bronze and Granite). Chicken available 9:00 – 1:00.
