NHPCA 3/12/23 Newsletter
Spring Forward This Weekend!
March 12th is the last time the US will have a time change, since a law is about to pass ending this 100+ old tradition. Don't be late to church on your last Spring Forward!
3/11: Ladies' Prayer Meeting
Join us tomorrow, Saturday, March. 11th, at 10am at the church for our monthly Ladies' Prayer Group! This group meets on the second Saturday of each month for a time of spiritual fellowship and prayer. (Praying out loud is not required.) For more info, contact Carolyn at 804-615-1117.
3/15: No Wednesday Night Activities
This is Spring Break week and all Wednesday Night activities, including Youth, Kids, Membership Class, and Family Meal (excluding choir, which will meet early at 5:45) are taking a hiatus on March 15th. We will be back on for the 22nd. (Also note that there will be no Wed. Night activities on April 5th, since it's Passion Week.)
3/19: Spring Picnic
Our annual Picnic will be at the Worshams' ranch in Umatilla after church on Sunday, March 19th. The address is 40911 Thomas Boat Landing Road in Umatilla.
Bring your own chair! Please note that if you have children, you will be responsible for their safety during all activities.
We still need plenty of dishes (especially sides). Sign up at this link to bring something. There is also a physical copy on the Narthex table. (Meat will be provided!)
4/9: Easter Brunch
On April 9th, Easter Sunday, we will have brunch (coffee, juice, and snacks) prior to the service. Exact time is TBA.
March is Wheelchair Collection Month!
As a part of the family of God, New Hope is being challenged to help Carolyn Costello collect 35 wheelchairs this month for Joni & Friends. Used wheelchairs will be refurbished to like-new condition by prison inmates and individually fitted to a needy person impacted by disability. Each person will also be given a Bible in their native language and will feel the love of Christ. Contact Carolyn at 804-615-1117 for more info on how you can be a part of this ministry.
3/25 & 4/15: Walk(s) for Life
Join Life's Choices (a ministry New Hope supports) as they "Walk for Life" on Sat., March 25th in Eustis' Ferran Park and/or on Sat., April 15th at Clermont's Victory Pointe! Go solo or form a Walk Team. These walks are fun for the entire family and there are great prizes for the top fund raising participants!
Both Walks begins at 9am. (Day-of registration begins at 8am.) Register online here for Eustis and here for Clermont. For questions, call 352-357-2202
