Nokomis Reads Book Discussion
In partnership with our Nokomis Neighborhood Association, Pastor John will be co-leading a book discussion @ the local library (5100 34th Avenue, Mpls). Our focus will be a recent work by Matthew Desmond entitled, Poverty, by America. It highlights the complexity of poverty in our nation, indicts both sides of the “political aisle,” and puts forth a number of common sense solutions. This adventure begins on Tuesday, May 28 @ Noon.

Crosstown Spring Grounds Clean-up Part 2
Hey church family & friends, you are invited to our second Grounds Clean-up at Crosstown. It’ll be on Saturday, June 1st, from 8:30 to Noon. You can help out with raking, pulling weeds, plopping plants in the ground, spreading mulch and beautifying our property! This is a great opportunity for kids, teens & adults to get involved. While we will have a few work tools available, you may want to bring your own rakes, shovels, hand spades, work gloves etc. from home. Come as long as you can, whether it's for only a few minutes or a couple of hours. We hope to see you on the 1st. Any questions, you can talk with or email Bob Weides (reweides@comcast.net).
