    Wear Pink Oct. 6


    WEAR PINK OCT 6 –
     Support the race against breast cancer by wearing pink to a worship service Sunday, October 6. (Or by wearing the official Especially For You race t-shirts… they are lavender!)

    While many of our members will be at the race downtown, we also want to join the effort to end breast cancer which has affected many within our church community.

    For each individual who wears pink or the lavender race shirt, the deacons have decided to donate $2/person in support of the race against breast cancer. Thank you for helping support free mammograms and other related services for area individuals in need and the many families in our church and community affected by breast cancer.

    Becoming a Foster Parent

    We wanted to share a desire that is stirring among our congregation – and that is one of becoming a foster parent, knowing their are hundreds of children in our area that are in need of sturdy, loving families.

    Is God placing that call on your heart as well? If so, please let us know.  We are pondering the need to host a foster family class at Cedar Hills and want to connect the families whom God is stirring.
