Our Church Photo Directory is ready for an update! If you are new to our church or were unable to make a photo session in 2016 or 2017, or maybe your family status has changed (i.e., new baby, marriage, divorce, etc.), we would like to have your portrait added to our printed directory. Once the new photos are taken and contact information is updated, new directories will be printed for everyone whose photo is included whether it was taken in 2016, 2017 or 2018. If you are happy with your current Lifetouch portrait, no need to do anything. Your photo will roll right into the new edition. Photographs will be taken at our church on Sunday, August 26, from 12 -5 pm. Every family who participates will receive a complimentary 8x10 portrait and a free UCCH Photo Directory. You will also have the opportunity to purchase additional portraits at the same time. CLICK HERE TO SIGNUP Contact Rinnie or Claudia in the church office with questions. Thank you!
