Glorieta on the Brazos

     I am excited about the Sunday School conference we have been putting together coming up the end of this August. This is a training event put together by churches for Sunday School leaders in churches of every size. We will soon be getting promotional materials ready to be mailed. If you would like to get a copy of the materials (brochures & posters) let me know and we will make sure you get them.
