Good News to share with you from Josiah and Kristina.

Kalmar Lee Scheumann was born February 23 at 4:34am.

Weighs 8lb 12oz and is 20 3/4" long.

Everyone is doing great!

Keep them in your prayers,

If you call Oxlip Church your home and are not a member yet, consider becoming a member.

Learn what we believe in, what each ministry does, and what it means to be a part of an Evangelical Free Church.

Class will be scheduled mid-March. If you are interested, see Pastor Lee for details.

The house is looking great! Thank you to everyone who has worked so hard, given so much, and prayed over this endeavor.

FYI, if you haven't been in the parsonage recently, or ever, we'll open it up for everyone to see before the family arrives if you would like. (We're working on plans for this)

The application was submitted a few weeks ago to INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service) for the Shapovolov family.

Current status is "Processing” So, we wait and pray it is approved in a timely manner and that airline tickets stay relatively consistent.

Pray also for the family as they wait in a refugee camp in Poland.

It appears applications are on hold until March 15. 

That being said, we have some extra time to complete the project of preparing the house.

Here is a list of items needed for the bedrooms. 

Please let Donna Moses or Phyllis Kulenkamp know if you can donate any of these items.

If you prefer to donate funds for the purchase of these, or any of the items on the previous lists for the rest of the house, feel free to do so. 

Designate on your check or with a note somehow so we know what the funds are for. Thank you!
