ANNOUNCEMENTS
Special Business Meeting This Sunday after the 10:30 service. We’ll be starting the meeting by voting on the following new member candidates recommended by our Board of Deacons: Phil & Donna Kemberling, Bobby & Melissa Varholak and Aimee Bingaman.
The Children’s Ministry Director Search Committee, along with the Board of Deacons and the Board of Elders are presenting Katie Yarger as the candidate for this position. Please join us for this special meeting to get to know Katie and place your vote.

Spring Business Meeting Wednesday, May 25 @ 7pm. Join us as we catch up on what going on at FBC! We’ll be talking about the parsonage and organ, discussing finances and more.See the Organ Committee’s recommendation below!
Baccalaureate Service This Sunday night at 7pm in the Danville High School Auditorium. All are welcome to attend.
Organ Committee Recommendation After many consultations concerning solutions for the water-damaged organ, we (an ad hoc committee including the current organists) believe the best solution was provided by Somerset Media Group for converting our current organ to digital at a cost not exceeding $40,000. The insurance money will cover just over $26,000 of this, and some church members have also offered to contribute to the conversion/repair. We would like to present this to the church at the Spring business meeting for a vote to pursue this solution for the organ.
