April Loose Change Update -

Katie Narum Miyamoyto

Katie has been in communication with us and we have decided that the funds raised by Bread of Life will go to a special 100th year anniversary project at the school she teaches, Luther Gakuin Middle/High School. The project is a painting/refurbishing of the chapel pews that are in much need of updating. Each school day 300 students gather in the chapel and it is also used for a variety of ceremonies throughout the course of the year. Thank you for giving to this special 100th anniversary project!

New Addition Big Room Naming

The church council is currently seeking input from the congregation in hopes to name the new addition big room. A name for the room will help identify it for church programming, visitors, outside groups, and community events. We'd love to hear any name ideas you might have. We are hoping that this name will be one in the spirit of welcoming all people, as many different people from inside and outside the congregation gather in this room. Name ideas can be submitted on paper in the church entrance or online through a link in the enews.
