NEWS AND NOTES

THE CHURCH COUNCIL will be recommending at the annual meeting replacing the current “Associate Membership” classification with a “Heritage Membership” classification which states:  Heritage Member – members who do not attend Turpin Mennonite Church on a regular basis, but desire to maintain a connection with the church because they value the Anabaptist/Mennonite heritage.  These members do not vote and are not included in the member count.  Heritage Member status can be change to full membership at any time upon request and regular attendance.

 

THE PANHANDLE COMMUNITY CORALE invites interested singers to join them with the Oklahoma Panhandle State University Choir in singing the Easter masterwork, Requiem, by composer John Rutter, on April 21st, at OPSU.  See bulletin board for rehearsal information.  Music scores available for $8 at the OPSU bookstore.
