Though there were challenges and roadblocks, she persisted.

Opportunity to Support:

Baseball, hot dogs, and a fundraiser for Dawson! With an outpouring of those wanting to help, a fundraiser for Dawson Vander Top and his family will be held on Tuesday, May 24 at the Southwest Christian High School parking lot. Dawson, SWC

sophomore and son of Cheney and Vonda Vander Top, was injured in an accident on Sunday, May 15 and is recovering at a Sioux Falls

hospital with multiple injuries. To show your support for Dawson and the Vander Top family, join us for a hot dog meal (hot dogs, chips, ice cream, and drink) being served from 4:30-7:30 p.m. and enjoy the baseball game being played the same evening. Dawson is a member of the baseball team, and we will encourage him with prayers to “ace” recovery to be home soon! Fundraising donations may be directed in three different avenues: 1) through SWC, 2) to the Vander Top account set up at First State Bank SW, Edgerton or First State Bank SW, Pipestone, or 3) through a Go Fund Me page set up for the Vander Top family. Thank you for the many prayers and other means you have and will support the Vander Top family with today and for the weeks to come.

Note:

Where is the world headed? Is Christ really coming? If so, what will happen when He does? When will it happen? What is our calling now? Today, people have many different views on what will happen in the future. Come to Edgerton PRC on Friday evening, June 3, at 7 PM to hear Pastor Matt De Boer explain what God's Word teaches about the future of this world and Christ's coming.

Thank you to the First Reformed Church Women for the flowers for our 50th Anniversary.
