THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
While I know myself as a creation of God, I am also obligated to realize and remember that everyone else and everything else are also God's creation. - Maya Angelou
INQUIRERS' CLASS AND NEW MEMBERS' CLASS
This Sunday, April 22, Morningside will offer an Inquirers' Class. This class is for anyone who wants to know a bit more about Morningside Presbyterian Church and the Presbyterian Church in general. It can be for folks who want to join on the following Sunday after our New Members' Class, or it can just be a tune-up for those who want a refresher on Presbyterian beliefs. Our New Members' Class will be offered on April 29. At the New Members' Class, those joining the church that day will be introduced to Session and received into membership, as well as, given an overview of ways to plug-in more deeply to the life of faith at Morningside Presbyterian Church. Both take place at 9:45 in the Session Room.
WOMEN'S ROUNDTABLE
The final Women's Roundtable of the season will be next Monday, April 23 at the home of Lynn Young (277 The Prado, 30309). Speakers will be Hillery McNeill and Sarah Brownlee talking with us about our church's history, especially how much things have changed since they joined years ago.
