We're a week away from the Koinonia Retreat ! If you haven't turned in your registration form, please do so as soon as possible...we still have some spaces available! If you have registered, you'll be receiving a letter that explains more about the retreat and what to bring. Any questions? Call Jess at 433-5725 If you are unable to make the retreat, please be with us in spirit by praying for all of the retreat participants and leaders. Please pray for good weather, safe travels, and especially that the Holy Spirit will fill our hearts and change our lives.
