Book Lovers: The CRC is rearranging basement space to accommodate our wonderfully growing number of children. While a small library will be maintained on shelves in the main room, many books from the library need new homes. Anyone is welcome to look through the boxes of books on the tables in the basement and take what they like. If you think a book should stay in the library, simply put it on the shelf. Books will be available until the end of January. At that time, any books left will be donated to another facility.
Do you have a need? Or know someone in need in our church family? Please contact Elaine DeVries at 680-4181 or Laura Noteboom at 201-9171 with requests for church family support. No need is too great or too small when we all work together to meet it.
Grace/CRC Church Family: “Rejoice with those who rejoice! Walk beside the weary.” If you are interested in being on a list of those helping to meet needs of our church family, please contact Elaine DeVries at 680-4181 or Laura Noteboom at 201-9171. This may involve anything from meal prep to yard work so all are welcome to be part of a contact list about needs. You may then decide if you can help with that particular need.
