Second Sunday of Easter
April 23, 2017

 
"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar. 
We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.  
 
We will demonstrate the real life application of scripture, tradition, and
reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs,   
hurts, joys, and interests."

                  Easton Cain Memorial Scholarship  
Resurrection Preschool would like to establish a yearly scholarship in memory of Easton Cain, one of our students who died tragically on January 17 , 2017.  This scholarship will be awarded to a child who otherwise could not afford to attend Resurrection Preschool.  We would like for this to be an ongoing yearly scholarship.  The preschool board will review each application and make the determination of which family will be awarded the scholarship. The amount of the scholarship to be given will be based on the availability of funds.  

If you would like to make a donation to the scholarship fund, please complete the form below and return with your check.
