Friend You make a difference.

We are a Community of Faith,

being Transformed by God's Grace,

Inspiring People to Become Disciples of Jesus.

We hope this newsletter finds you well. Take a look at all that is happening in the Linglestown Life community below:

This Sunday, May 21, we're celebrating our relationship with Hope Academy in Guatemala.

Rev. Jennifer Hope-Tringali, the founder of Hope Academy, will be preaching.

Join us this Sunday to learn the vital role that Linglestown Life has played in educating girls in Guatemala.

Life is full of transitions for everyone!

We pray that you've been learning a lot about navigating your life's transitions during the first two parts of the series. Catch up if you missed a week by watching our YouTube page.

We'll wrap up the series on Sunday, June 4.

Save the Date

The Music Extravaganza is the annual end of the season 'celebration' of the music groups and musicians at LL. The Bells, Choir, & Voices of Life will be featured along with congregational singing and scripture about making music unto the Lord! Please come out and support the music ministry of Linglestown Life.

Bells of Life

Our handbells are in need of a tune-up!

Our five octaves of handbells need polished, re-tuned, and repaired. Can you help with this special project?

The cost to refurbish the bells is $2,745. If you would like to contribute to the expense, please make a donation by check to Linglestown Life and mark Bell Fund in the memo line. Thanks!

Want to learn how to play the handbells?

This summer we'd like to host some introductory classes for kids and adults. If you would be interested in participating in this introductory experience, please contact a member of Bells of Life, or send an email to office@LinglestownLife.org

Nursery Care Servants

We have an abundance of infants in our nursery at 10:00am and need you to help! We are looking for servants who will join a team to serve the children and their parents. If you are willing to serve in this team, please contact the church office. You will be required to complete our Safe Sanctuary requirements.

Books. Books. Books.

Pastor George has lots of books! More than he wants to move!

There are carts filled with books in Janie's Place that you may take books from. Books are free.

Hope Academy

This plaque will be hanging on the wall of Hope Academy in Guatemala this January! Linglestown Life's generosity has brought hope and education to girls in this small village.

Sunday, May 21, Jennifer Hope-Tringali, the founder of Hope Academy, will be preaching during worship at 8:30 and 10:00am. Jennifer will be sharing on the work of the school and the impact your generosity has had on the community and girls.

Plan to join us for this special Sunday!

The Library at Linglestown Life

We have started cleaning and organizing the Library at the church, so if you planned on coming and getting a book or perusing the selections, it will be in a disorderly state for the next few weeks. We will update you when the Library has been cleaned and put back in a cohesive state.

LAHMBs Needs

The LAHMBs (The Lord’s Angels Helping Moms & Babies, an outreach helping parenting teens and families in need) has an immediate need for strollers (both full size and umbrella, no joggers please) and high back booster car seats. Highchairs, bathtubs and clothing from preemie/newborn through size 5T are always accepted. Please share with your friends, neighbors, preschools and moms’ groups! All these blessings help others right in our own community.
