Notice: The regularly scheduled worship service at Wayside Gospel Chapel for tomorrow has been cancelled due to the dangerous wind chill values predicted for our area (see below).
The National Weather Service is predicting that in the Roemersville area during the time period of our scheduled service the wind chill values will be between -25 deg. F. to -28 deg. F., and dropping even further as the day goes on.
If you must go out tomorrow at all please give attention to the advisory below. I have highlighted the pertinent statements with bold red font.
