This Sunday we welcome our guest preacher, Rosie Epp. Rosie is a retired pastor, most recently at Zion Mennonite Church in Elbing, KS. She has been an ordained minister for over 40 years and was the second ordained woman in Western District Conference. We are grateful for Rosie (also Renee’s mom!) to be leading us in worship this week.
