† KIDS KITS There are bags in the narthex just outside of the sanctuary that are intended for children to use during the service. The new kits have been provided and are going to be maintained by the GSLC Friends Bible Study Group. There are some items in the bag that are marked that can be taken home. Most items in the bag are intended to stay in the bags so that they can be used each Sunday.
