The Thumb Warriors made great progress this week for Faithfully Fit. They increased their lead in the spiritual goals and took over the lead in the emotional health category. But the 3R's maintained their lead in both weight loss and movement. Everyone's a winner as we press on toward better health. 


Do you know someone who is grieving the loss of a spouse? Invite them to attend the one-time event on February 17 at 5:30pm. Pick up a flyer at the Welcome Center.


Ladies!! Please mark your calendars for February 22, from 3-5 pm for a game day. Join us with bringing your favorite snack and game. We look forward to see you there!


Those interested in being a part of the winter reading group can sign up at the Welcome Center. The book that has been selected is "The Prodigal God" by Tim Keller. If you have questions contact Dale Ackerman.


Ash Wednesday: Pastor Dave will be attending the RNoC Pastor's Conference, Feb 16-19 in Applecreek, Ohio. Because of this, he will not be available to conduct an Ash Wednesday service on Feb 18th. As such, we will hold our regular Wednesday evening programming that evening. Those interested in attending an Ash Wednesday service are welcome to attend the service at Salem GMC in Pigeon at 7PM.


Overseer Visit: Our Overseer, Curtiss Kanagy, and his wife Robin, will be visiting us February 20-22. If you would like to host them or invite them out for a meal during their time with us, please contact Pastor Dave as soon as possible. 


Bay Shore Camp is hosting An Acoustic Evening With Sidewalk Prophets on May 30th. Come enjoy an acoustic evening under the stars — filled with music, laughter, and stories that inspire and connect. Get tickets here.
