Off The Wall Ministries

Nursery Policy on Sickness  Parents of nursery age children:  If your child is exhibiting ANY sign of illness (fever, cough, runny nose, nausea, lethargy, etc.), please do not bring them to the nursery.  We want to make our nursery as safe and healthy as possible, therefore, children who are not 100% will not be admitted.  If your child is turned away from the nursery, please feel free to watch the sermon from Lovegren Hall which has audio/video feed from the sanctuary.

Nursery Needs  The nursery is looking for a few gently used items:  traditional all wooden rocker, push/walker style toys (i.e. stroller, grocery cart), hats and dress up clothes, 18 months or younger plastic toys, and clothes (sleepers and onesies -- Newborn to 2T, pants and shirts -- 2T to 5T).  There will be a basket in the nursery hall to collect donated goods.  Contact Alia McIntire with questions. 

Men of the Word  This course is meeting the first Monday of each month (February 6), from 7 and 8pm, in the Reilly Ministry Library.

Women of the Word  This course is meeting the second Monday of each month (next meeting February 13), from 7 to 8:30pm, in the Reilly Ministry Library.
