New Pictorial Directory
We are putting together a new pictorial directory of all our church family members and a few candid pictures of past church events. Please look at the schedule and make your appointment.

Using Life-Touch (not Olan Mills!), photography will take place;
Friday, August 22, 2 p.m. until 8:30 p.m.
Saturday, August 23, 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Friday, September 12, 2-8:30 p.m.
Saturday, September 13, 10 a.m.until 4 p.m.

Note:  If you want to take your own photograph and submit it for publication, make sure it is vertical, or portrait style, taller than it is wide.    Photos taken with your own camera are fine, but should have high-contrast against a plain background to print well.  A copyright release must accompany professional photographs not taken by Life Touch.

Please sign up at the church office, or follow this link, http://www.appointment-plus3.com/ap/s1umc/index.php?page=10   for a photo appointment so your family photo can be included in the new directory. For questions ask Meghan Rose or Cathie Phelps or call the church office at 592-7451.
