Afterschool Pick-up: It is imperative that parents park their cars in the lower parking lot and meet their children at the side of the church (or as in the case of the younger children meet them at upper part of the parking lot by the dumpster). Some have been parking up next to the buses and leaving by the side of the church where the children are standing. The possibility of an accident involving the children is too great to take chances like this. Please do as asked and not put the children in jeopardy to save a minute!
