Weekly Update, May 3rd, 2024
Hi church,
Hope you are enjoying the fabulous spring weather! I wanted to alert you to our church membership class we are offering on May 19th immediately after service. This class is an excellent way to gain a closer look at the church's beliefs, mission, and opportunities of service and help you decide whether to pursue membership. A light lunch is provided and childcare, if needed. I would love for you to attend. Please sign up at the Connect Center so we know how many to prepare for.
Parenting Class
Join us Sunday, June 9th as Pastor Bryan leads a discussion on pointing our children to becoming Christians as well as subsequent spiritual growth. We will cover some valuable biblical principles as well as helpful resources. The class will go from 6-7:30pm.
SonShiners to National Arboretum
The SonShiners (55+) will be touring the National Arboretum (free) on Thur. May 16. Please meet at the church at 9am to ride the minibus or to follow. The bus will leave at 9:15am. After the tour, they will eat lunch at Glory Days in Edgewater at 1pm. Everyone will pay for their own lunch. Please sign up at the Connect Center, even if you are only meeting for lunch. Sarina has reserved a special room.
