Brodie Avenue Roadwork. Road construction will have significant impact on driving in Estes this summer. Brodie Avenue, which provides access to the church, will be under construction from Community Drive to Fish Creek Road until September. The asphalt paving of Brodie has been removed, leaving a dirt surface. Work is now in progress on the storm sewer. The west driveway to the church will be closed into August, as the construction of the storm sewer will block Brodie from our east driveway to beyond the west driveway.  Access to the church will 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, but expect that temporarily the only way to get to the church will be from Fish Creek Road.

A series of brief meetings (approx. 15 minutes) will be held in the Library following worship each Sunday beginning August 25th.  The goal is to gather questions, concerns, and ideas about using our property for a childcare facility and to allow the congregation to make an informed decision on the issue.  The Session assigned a special committee comprised of three Elders and a Deacon to lead the meetings.

The Mission Benefit Mini-Golf Outing will be held Sunday, August 25, at 6:00 pm at the Cascade Creek Ride-A-Kart, US 34 and Mall Road.Proceeds from the event benefit mission coworkers in Peru and Malawi.
