MASK MANDATE LIFTED
Due to the Governor’s latest orders, we are no longer enforcing that face masks be worn into and throughout the building. This will be left up to each individuals preferences as to whether or not you would like to wear one.
We will continue to watch for any possible changes to this order in the future by local or state authorities.
MOTHER'S DAY, MAY 9TH
Mother’s Day is in 2 weeks and we have 2 special opportunities we are offering for the mothers of our church!
PHOTOS – As a special gift to our moms we are going to have family photo sessions available NEXT Sunday, May 2nd, as well as on Mother’s Day, May 9th. We will have a photographer taking photos BEFORE and AFTER both services.
We would like to be sure that those who may have their mom’s attending with them for Mother’s Day or those who will have whole families attending for Family Dedication be able to get their pictures done on May 9th. If you don’t fall under either of those categories, and it’s possible for your family to, we’d love for you to come ready for your pictures on May 2nd.
Pictures will be taken during the following time frames:
May 2nd – 10:00 – 10:25; 11:45 – 12:30
May 9th – 10:00 – 10:25; 11:45 – 1:15
MOTHER'S DAY LUNCH
After service on May 9th, we are offering a special Mother’s Day Lunch catered by Mike’N’Cheese! Make plans to stay after and feed the whole family at no cost to you!
You can check them out on their Facebook page through the link below!

PRAY FOR APPALACHIA MISSION TRIP
Our 2021 mission trip is 8 weeks away! Even if you can’t go on the mission trip this summer to Appalachia, you can be a HUGE part of it by praying over the team, the region, and the church we will be partnering with.
We will be going to Clendenin, West Virginia and serving through Clendenin United Methodist Church pastored by Don Stilgenbauer. Please be in prayer over Don and his church, the people of Clendenin, as well as our team going. Join us in prayer that God would equip them with all they need to make a maximum impact for His Kingdom.

Chest Of Joash
The Chest of Joash provides an opportunity to give above and beyond the normal tithe. The money from it goes directly to work needed done on our building.
In 2 Chronicles 24 we find Joash repairing the temple and a chest was set outside of it for people to bring a tithe that was used to pay the workers restoring the temple. Verse 10 says, “And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.”
A huge THANK YOU to all of you who have joyfully donated just as the Israelite officials and people did!
You can give to the Chest of Joash by clicking the button below and selecting “Chest of Joash” in the drop down menu.
