Hurray for Our Nursery Workers of the Week!

The nursery was really hopping on Sunday with lots of activity!  Thank you to Carrie Nelson, Beth Moore, Lucie Moore, and Cheryl Beck for taking care of the little ones.  

Gaye Buchanan will be in charge of the nursery on September 29.  Thank you, Gaye!

Thank you to the Joiner family for donating the “grocery store” to the nursery. 
It was certainly a hit this past Sunday!

Braddock Devoe checks out Strider Drum's groceries at the new addition to the nursery provided by the Joiner family.

Lucie Moore and Strider enjoy a little quiet time in the midst of the busy nursery on Sunday.

Recipes Appreciated!

Each week we include a recipe in the Church Chimes and we hope that you are enjoying reading and trying them. You can add your favorite recipes to the Chimes by sending them to Cheryl Beck at cabeck@ncsu.edu. This is an ongoing WMU project.
