FINANCIAL MINISTRY ASSISTANT UPDATE: We are grateful for Tracy Matthews, who has graciously served as our financial ministry assistant since December 2021. After hours of volunteer service, she is ready to pass the torch. The Financial Stewardship Team is searching for a new person to fill this small, part-time hourly position, which requires attention to detail and experience with Quickbooks/accounting: www.efreechurch.org/apply.
THAT’S A WRAP ON AWANA FOR THE YEAR! We're deeply grateful to all the children, families, and dedicated volunteers who made the year truly special. We totaled 55 volunteers, 175 kids, 1574 hot dogs, several kids who accepted Jesus as their Savior, and other kids hearing the gospel for the first time! While hot dog dinners and fun games created wonderful memories, our greatest hope is that God's truth will remain embedded in these young hearts for a lifetime, shaping future generations to come!
