Mulberry Easter Egg Hunt is just a hop away. April 8, 2023 from 11am- 1pm on Coleman Hill.
We need your help! We have many ways that will be greatly appreciated.
1. Pick up a bag of empty plastic eggs that are located in the Atrium and both areas of the sanctuary. Fill the eggs with individually wrapped pieces of candy. Tape the seems after putting the eggs together. This way when we toss the eggs for the hunt they won’t fall apart. If some of the eggs don’t fit together, are broken, or left overs just throw them away. Return the filled eggs back to the tubs in the same location by April 1, 2023.
2. Purchase several bags of individually wrapped candy and place in the bins with the eggs.
3. Purchase 2 dozen already filled eggs and place in the bins.
4. Come and enjoy the day with us!
So, hop to it and attend the community egg that will have crafts for the kids, face painting, games, Easter Egg Hunt, and the opportunity to meet and take pictures with the Easter Bunny. Bring your picnic and enjoy the day with our community families.
Thank you so much in advance!
In Christ’s Love,
Elisa

New Realm Groups!
You are invited to join the Refrigerator Door & the Dinner Table!
We have started two new groups in Realm that are meant to be casual, open spaces for us all to share our highs and our lows - the moments we might pin to the fridge door and the moments we would share around the table. In this way, we can be in community with one another, offering support and sharing joys.
To join, search🔎 for the group name (Refrigerator Door or Dinner Table) and select "Join". Posts will appear in your Realm newsfeed. You will be able to post, like, and comment on each other's posts!
