A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR MUSIC THIS WEEK
As we wish Dan well in his new life, our music sends with him blessings and smiles. Lynne solos this week and her anthem lyrics include, “So trusting my all to thy tender care, and knowing thou lovest me, I’ll do thy will with a heart sincere. I’ll be what you want me to be.” I guess that’s true for all of us too?! Come say, “goodbye,” this Sunday

Volunteers are needed!
We are looking for loving individuals to help out during the week of VBS. We are also very excited to announce that we will be doing a one day VBS this summer on July 7th at the Real Life Children’s Ranch. If you would like to be a part of this wonderful hands-on mission opportunity, please see Crystal or Shannon. Please click here for the Volunteer application.
Vacation Bible School is a week full of Bible adventure! We will take a journey back to a time long ago and far away place as we quest for the King’s armor. Knights of North Castle is a time for children to armor up with truth, justice, peace, faith and salvation. There will be cool music, exciting science, creative crafts, fun recreation, and unforgettable Bible stories. We can’t wait to see you at the castle! Our preschool enrollment is currently FULL, however we do still have space for elementary students!
VBS Wish List: Cardboard egg cartons, pool noodles, curly ribbon string bows, large boxes, white coffee filters
These items will help our VBS campers have a royal celebration this summer! Please drop off donations in the church office anytime.
