COME FOR THE SEPTEMBER 10TH BREAKFAST:
Fires and Modern Forest Management

The September breakfast will be held on Friday, September 10 (not the 3rd because of Labor Day weekend) will feature a presentation on fires and modern forest management. It will be given by Herb Motley, who will share lessons of the family forest management in Northeast California. 

Fire is a natural element in the woods; they should be controlled and not accidental.  There are important lessons to be learned from the massive uncontrolled fires seen in the West each summer for the past dozen or more years.  They  should not be ignored as we look at forest management in the East.

The free breakfast is served at 8 a.m. with the presentation to follow from 8:30 to 9.   

All are welcome.  So mark your calendars and plan to come for a wonderful breakfast, informative presentation, and great camaraderie

WORSHIP IN THE PARK, SEPT. 12TH

Join us at 8:00 am in Marjoram Park on Sunday, September 12th, for the last outdoor, half-hour worship service of the summer. Enjoy the beauty of God’s creation in a time of shared worship. Bring a chair or a blanket, and invite friends and neighbors to worship with us on 12th!
