The Appleton City Ministerial Alliance is excited to announce new events for the community to participate in. Third Sunday Services will be held each month throughout the spring, summer, and fall months at area churches. Everybody is encouraged to attend as they will participate in a variety of formats including traditional, contemporary, singspiration, etc. Each meeting will be from 7:00 – 8:15 p.m. (roughly), and they will have donation opportunities for those interested towards the ACMA. The first date is coming up June 18 at River of Life Fellowship in Rockville. The initial endeavor will be a testimony service where they encourage one another with stories of what God is doing in their lives, followed by some light snacks and fellowship. Plans are underway now for the July 16 service as a singspiration event held locally. More information will follow. They look forward to seeing you attend and participate in these exciting services, the third Sunday of each month.
