On Sunday, May 6, at our 10:15 a.m. service, we confirm 12 youth. On Confirmation Sunday, the youth confess their faith and reaffirm the promises made at their baptism.

We give all thanks and praise to God that these teens have heard the voice of Christ in their lives and have reaffirmed their Baptisms and their commitment to follow Him. We ask that you continue to pray for them as they continue to serve their Lord and their church.
Blessings

The excitement builds… We will sing songs, build crafts,
play games and more! Until then, MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
Registration Forms available mid-May KIDS FIND THAT JESUS RESCUES THEM
WHEN LIFE GETS STORMY!
Memorial Day will soon be
here with its BBQs, picnics,
parades, and perhaps a day
off from work or school.
While there are some
fes�vi�es going on, we
celebrate it for a somber reason: remembering
those military members who died while serving our
country. We will be reaching out to the 23 men and
women listed on our military prayer list, asking if
they want to submit the name of a brother/sister in
arms who passed in the last year so we can
recognize them during our service and pray for the
loved ones they le& behind. The congrega�on is
also invited to submit names as well. Please send
an email to: [email protected]
or submit in wri�ng to the church office/ATTN:
Karen Kehrli the following:
* Deceased’s Rank & Name
* Branch of the Military
An updated military list is available in the Narthex.
Please remember to pray for these men & women,
and if you have the opportunity to write them a
note, or recognize them on their birthday with a
card, it will be well
received.

At long last, it seems spring is here and with it comes blooming flowers, greening grass, and a burst of activity here at church. We were blessed to welcome two new members, Alena DeLuise and Frank Cassidy to our family. The confirmation class finished its classes for the year, and we will welcome twelve new confirmands as they affirm the promises made to them in their baptisms. The school art show also provided its blast of color in Fellowship Hall as the works of our talented young artists were displayed for everyone to admire. Signs of new life are evident everywhere you look.
Our Wednesday morning Bible class has started a new study on Paul’s Letter to the Philippians as well. Chapter two talks about the example Christ's life provides for each of us. Here, Paul urges us to be of one mind, the same mind that was in Christ Jesus. A mind that shows love towards its fellow brothers and sisters in the faith, looks after their needs, and humbly considers others as better than themselves. In reality, we have all sinned. We have not loved God, or our neighbor, as we should. However, the greater reality is that we serve a risen Savior who humbled Himself, becoming fully one of us, and who on our behalf voluntarily went to the cross so that we can live as His forgiven
children. As His children, through our lives, in our words, and in our actions we confess to the world that “Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
As we enter spring, my prayer is that we will all be open to new growth and strive to develop the mind of Christ in us.
Grace and Peace,

Our first (to be annual) “Date Night” was a huge success. Parents we able to have a night out alone while we had a pizza party with their children in Fellowship Hall. We entertained 50 children (ages 3-8) with
movies, pizza, ice cream, balloons, art projects and games! Our confirmation classes volunteered their time to
engage the children and make the night a special time.
We are continuing to register for the 2018-2019 school year. We have a few openings in some classes.
Please tell a friend! “SUMMER FUN” is 6 weeks long, from July 2nd through August 10th with morning classes and FULL Day classes for 3-5 year olds. Call 783-1068 for information on any of our programs.

filled heart and a love for children. Ramona Adams, School Director
