SNOW? ICE? BLIZZARD? It is that time of year when inclement weather will “bless” us with its presence. If such “blessings” come on Saturday evening/Sunday morning, please check with Otter-Chat, this web page at otterumc.org, and/or listen to WJEJ 1240 on your radios for announcements regarding whether or not services are canceled. We will also update the office voicemail message for those who wish to call in, but please be patient if you get a busy signal. Above all, use common sense and PLEASE BE SAFE.
