Adult Education Survey
Attention All Adults: This is your final chance to complete the Adult Education survey. In order to serve you better, the Education Commission hopes that ALL adults in the congregation will take a few minutes to answer our survey. If you haven’t already submitted your responses, please do so today! You can fill out the insert in this week’s bulletin (then place in the offering plate or drop it off to the church office), or submit your responses online at www.apostlesucc.org. We value your time and feedback, and we look forward to revising our adult education offerings to best suit the needs and interests of all adults in the congregation. Thank you for helping us to serve you better!

Choir Retreat
The 2015 Choir Retreat will be held on Saturday, August 29 at the home of Al and Betsy Bischoff from 9:00am to noon. This is a great opportunity for each current choir member to bring along someone who is interested in becoming a choir member. Please attempt to find at least one person to bring to the retreat. This may be someone who is potentially a new church member or a current member seeking a way to enhance his or her Sunday worship. In addition, a corn roast, prepared by the Bischoffs, will follow all of Saturday’s events! There is a sign-up list posted in the choir room.
