3 Church Audio Visual System Are you ever confused by the Old Testament readings? Well, perhaps we can start by improving our audio and visual (AV) system so you ll at least hear it clearly. We have a proposal for a system to improve the sound quality in the sanctuary and provide a permanent screen to display announcements. This will provide visual information during service. If you would like to contribute to the system, please label your contribution AV and deposit with the collection or in the church office. We will keep you posted on our progress toward our goal over the coming weeks and we will be able to start when we have collected 75% of the $18,700 needed. Please contact Bill Martz at if you have any questions. We have currently collected $ towards the goal. PRAYERS of the PEOPLE THE LORD S PRAYER Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
