—New This Month—

Dear Friends of the Resource Center,

The Resource Center of Miami Presbytery will not be staffed for two weeks beginning December 19 through January 2. Access to the Resource Center is available anytime the Presbytery Office is open by contacting Tom Oxley for a key. The catalog is online and available by clicking on the online catalog to see if a volume is checked in or out.

It has been enjoyable to help for the past 18 months in the Resource Center.
Watch for new and exciting possibilities in the Resource Center. -Jeanne McIver
