No Nursery today. We invite families to worship together as we marvel at the love of God for us.
No Sunday School today. Enjoy spending time with your family as you celebration our Savior's Resurrection.
Today...The Coffee orders can be picked up in the conference room. Table coffee can be purchased next week.
Plan now to attend the Faithfully Fit Celebration on Wednesday, April 19, at 6:00pm. Bring a healthy dish to share and celebrate with those who accomplished so much toward their physical and spiritual goals. We will announce the winners in each category and then go to classes and choir at the usual times.
Next week the Art of Parenting class will start. Contact Pastor Bill to get on the list to attend. This will be for parents of all age children. Learn from others and share your experiences.
The Balcony class will have a new 4 week study taught by Brandon Yowler beginning on April 16th. He will lead a discussion on the book, Watchman Prayer by Dutch Sheets. The books will be available for a suggested donation of $10. Make plans to attend and learn how the author, Dutch Sheets issues an appeal for watchmen who, through strategic prayer and the Holy Spirit's leading, will call forth a perimeter of protection around their loved ones, cities, churches, and nations---while at the same time unraveling the schemes of the devil. Do you hear it? Will you respond?
Parents and Children/Youth Volunteers, Dr. Natalie Nugent, licensed clinical psychologist with Huron Behavioral Health will be sharing with us on mental health and the effects of technology. The information session followed by Q&A will be April 20, 6:00 p.m. at the church and is being offered as a part of the PRMC annual child safety training for all volunteers.
The VBS theme this year is Babylon - Daniel's courage in Captivity. Please mark your calendar for June 5-9 and prayerfully consider how God would have you help this year.
