In accordance with our church rules, persons are asked to refrain from smoking in the church building. Alcoholic beverages may not be consumed in the church building or on the church premises.

The bride’s family assumes responsibility for all gifts brought to the church or reception.  Remember that the church is open, as a public building. Normal precautions should be taken to assure that gifts are protected.

Persons should be designated to take charge of the gifts before and during the service, and to take all gifts from the church building after the wedding.
