EMANUEL CONGREGATION: Just a reminder to please sign the attendance registers each week when you come to worship. This gives us a more accurate picture of how many people are in the pews. The information helps us with bulletin preparation as well as the Annual Congregational Report for the Synod. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: In the interest of creating a Safe Worship Space for our congregation, Council/Vestry has agreed to institute a policy of locking all outside doors, except the main doors, five minutes after our Sunday Service begins. Please be aware that only the main entrance will be accessible during service time. Thank you.
