WELCOME TO ALDAN UNION CHURCH! Visitors, please give us your name and address<br />
on the Friendship Pad as it is passed down your row. We trust that you will enjoy your<br />
time with us today as we worship the Lord Jesus Christ. When children ages 4 - 5th<br />
grade are dismissed during the service for their worship time, parents are permitted to<br />
accompany them to the Narthex in the back (where a children’s leader is available for<br />
any questions) and then return for the rest of the service.<br />
