T-Coil Announcement

We have upgraded our audio equipment in the sanctuary to include a hearing Loop System. Most persons with hearing aids can tune in to the Loop. Some 85% of hearing aids have a T-coil channel already installed. You may need to have your hearing aid specialist activate the T-coil in your hearing aid. Look for the Hearing Loop symbol around town. Other venues have also installed the loop system and we are happy to be on board. If you don't have assistive devices or an active t-coil, we have temporary devices to wear during a church service. Ask an usher for assistance. 

 

COFFEE BAR
Feel free to enjoy the coffee bar before or after service, NOT during as it causes disruption.  Thank you!
