Appreciation Sundays Your ministry is not in vain
Appreciation Sunday The children’s ministry... because the children learn at a very early age who is God, Jesus & Holy Spirit.

Appreciation Sunday The ministry of StarKids & YouthQuest... because they helped me establish a strong relationship with God at a young age.

Appreciation Sunday The ministry of Everyone – I notice all of it - made a difference in my life— the band, the singers, the food people, the greeting people, the truck drivers, the teachers and assistants, the youth leaders, the Wed. night basketball people.
