The big move: Ken & Kathy plan to move their belongings via rental truck to Quakertown, PA on Friday morning, January 8.  They would like the assistance of 4-5 men (with muscles!) to help move furniture and several ladies to assist with cleaning from 8:30-10:00 am if possible.  West Swamp church members will meet them in Quakertown to assist with the unloading. They plan to reside at a rental on Camp Men-O-Lan until they purchase a home. They plan to keep their current e-mail addresses. Kathy will begin her duties officially on January 10.  Please be in prayer for them as they make this transition.

For all who work with children: the superintendents and child protection committee ask that all childcare workers, children’s Sunday school teachers, etc., attend a brief informational meeting following Sunday school on either January 10 or February 7, regarding our congregation’s child protection guidelines.
