Nativity Yard Guard is buried in mulch! We need your help
Saturday, March 10, 9:00am to noon
- or whatever time you can spare - to help three old timers spread some mulch. A rake or wheel barrel would be helpful but not necessary. What we really need is your strength and time.

As part of our Lenten Wednesday evenings, we'll gather for a soup and bread supper.
This is a great time for fellowship with one another, and in eating dinner as a church family we are fed physically and spiritually.
We need your help to make this happen!
We need 7 soups each week, to be sure everyone is fed. If you can make soup, please sign up using the link below. Setup and cleanup slots are also still open, if you'd like to serve in this way.

The Variety Show was a great success!
We have many
"Thanks!" to give -
Thanks to everyone who came out in support of our Youth for an evening of fun & fellowship! Thanks to all the groups and families who donated baskets! Thanks to the Wards for providing our Thrivent Action Grant! Thanks to those who performed in the show! Our Basket Raffle raised $1,462 total! As of March 4, after 2 prior Sundays of ticket sales, we needed just under $5,000 to reach our goal. That day, we raised
$1,994, between the day's raffle sales and your donations at the Show! We are deeply grateful for your generosity. We are so close to our goal of taking 14 Youth and 4 adult leaders to the Gathering! We could not do this without Nativity's support -
Thank You!
