If you will be joining us, please wear clothes that you do not mind getting dirty or giving new color to in the way of paint stains! If you have gardening gloves or thick work gloves, bringing them would be appreciated.

Easter Treats: Now Accepting Donations

The Easter Bunny could use a little help this year filling all our eggs for the hunt to follow Holy Eucharist. Consider bringing a bag of individually wrapped sweets that will fit into small easter eggs that our special guest can hide around the grounds for the youth to discover. A basket will be on the Welcome Table.

Who will win the Golden Halo?

If you’ve not heard about Lent Madness…it’s sort of like March Madness, but instead of basketball it’s about saints and their stories. A member of the parish, Gloria Flowers, recently shared with the Rev. Mel that she’s a fan – perhaps you will be too! By the time Holy Week comes along, you’ll see how God works in the lives of ordinary people to shine the light of Christ’s love in a world in need of hope.
