Ambassadors for Christ, rooted to grow and serve
The issue with the "Contact Mount Olive" and the feedback forms has been resolved.
Please let Don Halley or Paul Johnsen know if you have further problems with those tools.
Do you ever see people in church and wonder what their names are? Have you ever heard an announcement regarding a member and wished you could put a face with a name? Are you new to our church and wish you had something to help you put names with faces? Well, help is on the way!
