Balloon Pals – Prayer partners between Children and adults in the church. When there is a celebration or concern for either partner we will inform our partner so they can be in prayer for us. We will share cards at moments of celebration (i.e. birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, etc.) There will be no gifts so that all can afford to participate. We plan to have a fall and a spring meal with everyone involved. Please register. It would be good to have twice the adults as children so that we can be ready for new people.
