Youth Spotlight: We want you to get to know the youth in our congregation a little better. The middle school and high school students are active in Sunday School and youth group, but because they meet in the upstairs youth room, they are not always visible to the congregation. So, we are going to "spotlight" a different youth once a month. Starting monthly in May, we will put a picture of one of our youth on the bulletin board in the narthex. Read the fun facts about them and say a prayer for each of them as we rotate different youth throughout the year.

A good way to get some exercise and enjoy the beauty of God’s creation is to mow the church lawn. A sign up sheet for summer mowing is posted in the office. Please consider signing up to help with maintaining the beauty of the church yard this spring and summer. The code to open the shed for the riding mower is available in the church office during office hours.
