ALL HANDS ON DECK!!
Church Clean-Up May 1
On May 1st, directly after Morning Worship, we will have our church clean-up. As we begin to open up the building once again, there are many places that haven’t been thoroughly cleaned since before the pandemic. This is our church, and we need all hands on deck. Therefore, we are asking every able-bodied member to join us in the sanctuary for service (come dressed in casual clothing!), and stay to help us make our church look as beautiful as the people who attend it are!
Thanks in advance!

 SERMON PREVIEW
The Resurrection wasn’t a one-time event. It wasn’t meant to be celebrated once a year, and then for things to return to status quo. Resurrection was supposed to lead to Transformation. We will celebrate Easter tide in the Spirit of Transformation. Please read John 21:1-14 in preparation for our Sermon, “2% Better!”

CHURCH FORUM – MAY 15
On May 15th, directly after Sunday service, we are holding a church forum. We are shaping our path forward out of COVID, and need your input. We are asking all members to stay and participate. The forum will not last too long! Be on the lookout for a questionnaire before the forum.
