Are you wondering where your Bible went?
How about your favorite mug or jacket?
There’s a chance it has landed in our lost and found!
Stop by the lost and found table in the Lower Atrium on Sunday, April 16 and 23 to see if anything is yours. Unclaimed items will be donated or discarded on April 24.
Beginning April 24, we will donate or discard items in the lost and found after 90 days. Thanks for helping us keep our building tidy!
