Due to the weather forecast, we've made the difficult decision to cancel the Easter Egg Hunt. The Easter Bunny will be visiting the preschool classes on Sunday morning. Bags of Easter candy will be handed out to children after this weekend's worship services.
We're so grateful for your understanding, and we look forward to celebrating Easter with your family this weekend.

The Green Team encourages you to grab all those old computers, hard drives, CPUs, smartphones, and other electronics, and bring them to this FREE e-waste collection event at Simmons Bank Arena parking lot in North Little Rock on Tuesday, April 7th, or Wednesday, April 8th from 7 a.m.-2 p.m. The Regional Recycling & Waste Reduction District is putting on this event because it is so important to dispose of e-waste properly and responsibly. Many electronic items contain hazardous wastes like lead and mercury. These hazardous chemicals are detrimental to human health, the environment, and we do not want them in our local landfills.
