In 2020, we have watched the family become more important in many aspects of our children's lives at all stages of the journey. As we walk into 2021, gain encouragement for your children's spiritual growth with Pastor Bill whether you are soon to be a parent for the first time, in the thick of it now, or coming alongside your adult children. Join us for a six-week small group to discuss ways of helping our children grow in their faith, as we come alongside each other to learn from and support one another on the road of faith. Watch for additional details in the coming weeks and contact Pastor Bill with questions or to sign up.  

A new Women’s bible study will begin on January 12th at 7 pm on Tuesday nights. Beth Maurer will facilitate the study from Right Now Media via zoom. “40 Verses to Ignite Your Faith” by Laurie Short will be the book study. Contact Beth for questions or to sign up.

Pastor Dave will be offering a four week membership class on Sunday afternoons at 1PM beginning January 10th. If you would like to participate, please contact   Pastor Dave by January 3rd.

Reminder: Please don’t forget to send in your annual report to Emily by Jan. 3.

If you would have interest in participating in a Men’s Bible study beginning in January, contact Pastor Dave.

Make plans now to join the Menno Knights in 2021. This accountability group will help you focus on your exercise and weight loss goals and is open to everyone. In a time that everything is changing, this will be the same as in the past years. For 2021 we will tour the Great Lakes and visit some lighthouses on our way to better health. You can sign up now at the Welcome Center or contact Marie.

Thank you for all of the prayers and cards sent during Esther's illness and recent passing. This has been very difficult and your connections meant so much to me.  ~Bob Bedford
