Our HVAC units at the church are over 25 years old and showing it. Three of the five units have been shut off for the safety of our congregation. We are in an urgent rush to raise funds to replace at least one of the non-functioning units this winter, and all five as soon as possible. If you are able to give toward this urgent need, please mark your donations “Building Fund.”
Our second annual Spring Craft Fair will take place on Saturday, May 2, from 9am to 2pm. If you’d like to participate as a craft vendor, please fill out an application form (available here on our website under the Registrations tab). We will again offer a Cookie Walk, so if you can contribute some specific baked goods, please sign up at the coffee bar (see sign up sheet for specific needs).
Church and Parsonage Repairs are listed on sign-up sheets at the coffee bar. Take a look and see which projects you feel comfortable taking on. Please check with Rachel Parteko before purchasing any supplies, as they may have already been purchased. Then feel free to complete your projects in your free time. Thanks in advance for your service!
Sidewalk Maintenance Crew is assembling to care for our sidewalk and parking lot during the frosty, snowy months. Sign up at the coffee bar to take a month of maintaining the safety of our church family!
Gift Card Fundraiser: We have an on-going fundraiser through RaiseRight.com. When you purchase gift cards for any amount from a variety of participating vendors, the church receives a percentage of your purchase – at no extra cost to you! Gift cards can be selected as e-cards or physical cards. Physical cards can be ordered through the church to cut down on shipping fees. Please see Amber Campbell or Jan Roop with any questions.
Stitches of Hope: Every Friday from 10am-12pm, join a fun group of artisans as they gather to knit, crochet, and fellowship! Items made by these skilled and loving hands include hats, angel gowns, lap blankets, prayer shawls, and more! These items are donated to nursing homes, hospitals, and wherever a need is present! Don’t know how to knit or crochet? These experts are willing to teach!
We look forward to seeing you at our worship services! Sunday Worship Service begins at 10:30am. Midweek programming for kids (PreK-5th) and teens (6th-12th) takes place every Wednesday from 6:30-7:30pm.
