Youth Sunday
Thanks to everyone for using their time and gifts to make Youth Sunday a meaningful experience for all. Our lunch and auction raised $9000 which will help as many students as possible participate in our summer trips. Thank you everyone!
Children’s Sunday School Classes
I will be sending ideas out to parents to help continue faith formation at home. We will try to offer a group online gathering for all ages of children at some point. 
Wednesday Night Lenten Service
Pastor Chris will lead us in an online worship this Wednesday evening.
Families – let’s plan to do this together for Holy Week!
 
God’s Big Easter Story: A Holy Week Journey for Families  provides your family with a simple, meaningful way to grow in faith together as you remember the events leading up to Jesus’ death and celebrate Jesus’ resurrection.

Eight brief devotions to download and print encourage families to  breathe read wonder , and  pray  together. Kids can add printable story symbols (either full-color or outline-style to color yourself) to a path that follows Jesus's journey from Palm Sunday to Easter morning. 

God's Big Easter Story  is based on the Holy Week section of Faith Alive's popular  God’s Big Story cards  boxed set (available from FaithAliveResources.org). It's part of the  Dwell at Home  series of faith
formation resources for families.
