The church office is open from 7:30 am to 1 pm on Friday and closed on Sat. and Sun.  It reopens at 7:30 am on Monday.

GEN members, it is up to you to check the comments on the blog each day, to see if someone volunteers to drive. If a driver is available, the group will meet, as usual, at 3:45 pm in the back parking lot and ride together.

If no one volunteers, please know that you are always welcome to go on your own in individual cars. The meeting agenda is posted below.

Please consider becoming a volunteer driver. The next time GEN meets at FPC, we hope to sign up a few folks who can step in occasionally, when we need a driver.
