Brodie Avenue Roadwork. Road construction has had significant impact on driving in Estes this summer. Brodie Avenue, which provides access to the church, continues to be under construction from Community Drive to Fish Creek Road through September and into October. One of the driveways to the church may be closed from time to time to accommodate the construction.  Access to the church may also be limited to a temporary road from Fish Creek. Although you may be able to drive onto Brodie Avenue from Community Drive, you may not be able to get to the church from that end, depending on the work in progress. Look at the signs at whichever intersection may be open for latest information, as we frequently have no advance notice about changes.

Thank you for your input!  The weekly meetings following worship were helpful in gathering questions and concerns regarding use of church property for a childcare facility.  Now we will review the questions and comments collected and seek answers with authoritative sources. However, if anyone has additional questions or concerns, feel free to talk with any member of the committee  (Jan Boatman, Dave Evans, Kent Meyer, or Ford Nielsen).

Annual Coat Distribution at Crossroads Ministry will be Friday, October 4 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.  If you would like to donate new or used-but-still-in-good-condition winter coats, sweaters, hats, scarves, gloves, and mittens, please bring items to Crossroads Ministry by Friday, September 27.

Have you made the BIG decision about what great soup or chowder you are bringing to the Harvest Soup Festival?  Well, it’s high time that you do.  Get that crockpot out and plan on filling it with your best concoction.  It’s always a great time to share lunch together and chat with some of our very best friends. So plan on coming October 20 immediately following the church service.  Membership and Hospitality will have the cornbread and crackers, dessert and beverages.  You just get yourselves to church with your best soup and we’ll kick off Fall together. See you there!
