Our next New Member Welcome Sunday will be coming up soon.

Do you play a musical instrument? Anyone from 8th grade thru adults interested in playing in a Reformation Sunday Ensemble should let Wayne Hagemoser know soon. This way transformations, if needed, can be made available. Practice sessions will be the Tuesdays before Reformation Sunday at 5:30 before bell practice at 6:30. All instruments, including strings, woodwinds, etc. are welcome. I can be reached at 232-2807 or wayneh@iastate.edu after October 4th if questions arise.
