This Sunday Gregg will be leading the music/worship plus we will have Coffee 4:59 ready. Thank you Kristen Baker for all of the incredible baking that you do each week!! Much appreciated. In fact, I want to give a huge shout-out to all of our young leaders…and especially those ‘up and coming’ young leaders. It is so awesome to see the number of middle school, highschool and college students that get involved every Sunday at Alderbrook Church. Wow!!
