• February Friendship

  “Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.” (Romans 15:7)
  
  If we want to double the attendance at our church the easiest way is for each of us to invite someone to come.
  
  As we go through our “One Another” sermon series and live out our theme of ACT – Adapt, Connect, Trust – let’s make February our “Friendship February.”  Invite someone to join us in church so that we might accept and fellowship with one another.
• February Newsletter
  

  Our latest newsletter is available here.

   
• Ugly Sweaters
  

   

  December 15 was designated “Ugly Christmas Sweater Sunday.”  It was fun to have so many involved in the silliness.
• Lunch and Learn
  

  Are there parts of the Bible that challenge you?  Are there things that don’t make sense?  Have you ever had questions about faith, religion, and God but were afraid to ask?

  The Worship Team will be hosting four “Lunch and Learns” throughout the coming year.  These will be opportunities to gather in fellowship, but they are primarily intended for us to gather and ask questions about the Bible.  These will be a time of sharing our thoughts and learning more about God’s holy Word.  These Lunch and Learns are currently scheduled for the fifth Sunday of March, May, August, and November.  We hope you will join us in this time of Biblical exploration.

   
• After Words

  We’re bringing back the “After Words” inserts.  These are opportunities to generate conversation and thought about the Sunday morning message to get you talking with family and friends following the church service.  “After Words” is a presentation of questions and ideas to stimulate conversation and a deeper understanding of the message.  We hope you will give it a try.
• Kids Club!
  

  Come and make crafts, make music, make our community a better place and most important -- MAKE FRIENDS!

  We start on September 18 at 6:30 PM!

• Hygiene Kits
  

  These kits are jam-packed with supplies to help keep people clean and healthy. You are making sure that someone’s needs are going to be met in the wake of an emergency when even the most basic supplies can be hard to come by.

  • One hand towel measuring approximately 15” x 28” to 16” x 32”. ( No fingertip, bath, dish-towel, or micro-fiber.)
  • One washcloth.
  • One wide-tooth comb removed from package.
  • One fingernail or toenail clipper removed from package.
  • One bath size bar of soap in original package.
  • One toothbrush in original package.
  • Ten standard size Band-Aids.

  Other notes:

  • Do not add any other items or toothpaste. 
  • There is a $2 processing fee per kit, if you would like to donate that as well.
  • Each kit costs approximately $15.  Please feel free to give Deb Prescott or Kathy Wagner a monetary donation for supplies.
  • Donated items do not need to be placed in a Ziplock bag, as the team will assemble the kits later.
