Journaling Class

Pastor Sonnenberg is ready to do another Journaling Class. The class has a maximum of six participants. Those in the course will determine the times and dates.

 

If you are interested, we will have a sign-up sheet in the Narthex. The first six to sign up will be in the next class. If more than six people signed up, we can hold them over for the next class.
