During the Summer we give our Kids Worship Team and Community Group Volunteers a well-deserved break. This gives them a chance to join us for regular worship and recharge. We want to say a special thanks to Mr. James for keeping our kids plugged in while we were apart! Thanks to all of our volunteers for all that you do to serve the Children at Double Oak.
