A variety of books await toddlers, preschoolers, children, and youth in the Children's Library located across from the Gathering Room. If you read five books from the library before school starts, you will receive a prize. Anyone reading more than five books will receive another prize. Please let Cheryl Beck know when you have read five or more books.
The Deacons of our Church support the idea of establishing a safety team to address any emergencies that we may be faced with in the future. I have been in touch with our local Sheriff’s Department and they are willing to help establish and train a Safety Team for our church. The first step is to see who would be interested in being part of this team. There are many different needs to be filled to establish such a team. Thus many different skill sets will be needed. If you are interested in being part of the very first Safety Team established at Sylva First and are willing to participate in the required training please contact me at jddills1@gmail.com or by phone at 828-506-3815.
Thank you,
John Dills
