Holy Week Events and Needs
This year we are holding Maundy Thursday service on Wednesday, March 28th. This will allow the youth to be involved. We will be offering a pulled pork supper at 6:00 p.m. followed by a blended worship service at 7:00 p.m. in the Family Life Center. Communion will be served.
An ecumenical Good Friday service will be held here at 7:00 p.m. March 30th. Our friends from Ely Presbyterian Church and St. John's Lutheran Church in Ely will be attending with us. We are looking for non- speaking actors who will act out Jesus' journey to Calvary. Parts include: Jesus, 2 soldiers and an adult Mary.
Please consider providing cookies or bars to share at the "Maundy" Wednesday meal. We will serve any remaining goodies at the service on Friday as a sign of welcome and fellowship.
Four services will be offered on Easter Sunday, April 1st. A 7:00 a.m. Sunrise Service will be held as well as the usual 8:00, 9:15 and 10:45 services.
We will be needing extra ushers, greeters, and a power point person for the Maundy Wednesday, Good Friday and Sunrise Services. Please contact Carol Crisman or Pastor Jim if you would like to help with any of the above needs. Thank you.

Coordinating Our Building Use
Are you needing a place at the church for a committee meeting or event? Please note that ALL scheduling of the building's use must be cleared and scheduled through Julie in the church office. This is not a "permission" issue, but we do need this central location for keeping track of the building's activities (we are thankful to be able to host a growing number of Boy and Girl Scouts this year!). Just
drop an email or phone the office (848-7213), so there are no surprises. Thank you!
