Courtyard Clean-Up Day

Volunteers Needed!

We invite all congregational members to join us this Saturday, March 28, 2026, from 9:00 AM to Noon as we come together to clean up and prune our beautiful courtyard.

During Holy Week, the courtyard becomes a special place for worship, reflection, and quiet prayer. Your help will ensure that this sacred space is welcoming and peaceful for all who seek rest and spiritual renewal.

If you are able, please bring your own tools and gloves. Pizza will be served for lunch as a thank-you for your time and effort.

Whether you can stay for an hour or the whole morning, your help will make a meaningful difference. Many hands make light work—we hope to see you there!

The parish office will be closed on Easter Monday, April 6th and Tuesday April 7th in observance of the Holidays.

Norborne School Egg Hunt

Candy Donations

Norborne School will be hosting their annual Easter Egg Hunt, and we would love to help make it a sweet celebration for the students!

We are asking the congregation to donate small wrapped candies that can be used to fill the children’s Easter baskets.

Mr. Bunny will be visiting the students sometime during the week of March 29, and he will help distribute the candy to the children during the festivities.

If you would like to contribute, please drop off your candy donations at the church office or bring them with you to Sunday service.

Thank you for helping us share a little Easter joy with the children of Norborne School! 🐰🌷🍬

Hi there everyone, I’m currently trying to take an inventory of all the keys to the church doors and who has what key for any door to our building. If you have any keys to any of the buildings, can you please email me back so I can add you to my list.

Your gifts and pledges help continue this story—feeding the hungry, offering hope, and showing God’s love in action.

Pledge faithfully. Give generously. Share joyfully.
