Dear 12 grade youth and their parents:
First Presby will celebrate its graduating high school students on May 8. All
are invited to a brunch in the Dining Room during the Sunday School hour. Please
RSVP the church office at 304-343-8961 AND bring a dish to share. After brunch
the seniors will be recognized during the 11:00 worship service.
Posters have been made on which you and the congregation can write a note, best
wishes, etc. If you want a photo on your poster, bring it to the church office
this week. After 4 pm slide it under the door.
