A Prayer For The New Year
Lord, Whether I leave behind a year of joy or trials & difficulties, I pause to give thanks. Thank you for being with me every day. Thank you for making all things new and for giving me the grace of fresh starts and new beginnings. Remind me of your presence in the days to come, even when I feel pushed and rushed by busyness.
Be glorified in my life this year. Amen

Community News!
Come join us for a casual Q&A session with a local tax expert as he visits with our community to discuss changes for the upcoming 2023 tax season. This informal seminar will provide you an opportunity to both listen in and ask any questions on your mind before you file your taxes. Many changes have occurred with the phase out of Covid benefits as well as plenty of updates to the regular credits and deductions typically available. We hope this provides some valuable information to our membership and we look forward to seeing you there.
