Summer is rapidly getting us fully back into school, work, and some of our regular community activities. Here at MCCF we're looking at the calendar to find a good Saturday morning to host our annual Fall Breakfast and an inspiring speaker to encourage us in our walk in faith as we seek to serve the afflicted in our community. Please contact me soon if you know of any upcoming events that might compete with an MCCF Breakfast on a particular day or if you have a speaker in mind that you think might be interested in sharing with us. In the meantime, I'm forwarding a message I received this week from Samuel Gerardi about CMDA events in the NE and Western NY that may be of interest to some of you here in Rochester. Blessings to all!
