Worship Uncoiled Need

The student ministry is looking for volunteers to provide food for Worship Uncoiled on Sunday nights this spring.  Our meal time is a vital part of what happens in our Student Ministry on Sunday nights.  That time gives students a relaxed atmosphere to enter into so their hearts can best prepare for what God has to say to them.  If you would like to partner with us and help provide meals, please contact Jennifer Branam at 812-249-7990.
