As a staff we are trying to bring some more fellowship time and organization to our Wednesday family dinner as the congregation indicated was needed by recent surveys. Would you please help us by having children remain with you at the table in the FLC during the dinner time? We hope the following changes will foster a more relaxing evening and blessing for all. Read what is new, based on your feedback!!!
Later Start & Extended Eating Time: 5:30-6:15 PM, so families can arrive & eat together!
Get home earlier! All programs, groups, and (kids) choirs end at 7 PM.
Utensils, Napkins, Desserts Pre-set on tables in family section. Yea Moms! This means fewer trips up and down...fewer opportunities for your children to wait unsupervised while you return, and more time to eat and relax!
Second Drink Station in Family Section with pitchers for easy transport of beverages.
Additional garbage cans located near door of Children's Building. Easier to clear your table and drop your trash on way out doors.
New FLC Speed Limit ~ 1 MPH. Parents, please help us create a safer environment for all by asking your children to refrain from running during dinner time in the Family Life Center.
The Chicken Clause: Ask for baked chicken and/or a dinner-size salad as an alternative adult meal.
Special Birthday Treats for all celebrating birthdays!
