THINGS TO REMEMBER

1. DONATION TO ST. AUGUSTUS AME ZION CHURCH:
The Pastor, officers and members of the St Augustus have been extremely generous in donating church facilities and assistance.

I am asking for contributions so that we can make a united contribution at the worship service on Sunday. We will be collecting this contribution at the Meet and Greet.
