Baptism Service: Contact the church office if you are interested in participating in the baptism service on October 16.

Bulletin and Prayer Chain Email Update: Colonial members, in order to keep our bulletin and prayer chain emails from being classified as spam, we are in the process of updating our email list and have removed a few names. If we have inadvertently removed yours, please contact the church office to be put back on the list. Please be sure we have one email per family.
