THE MEN ARE GOING HIKING
in 2 Days!
This is a chance to make some new friends and get exercise. Men of all ages are welcome. Once a month on Saturday morning we will take a 4–6-mile hike on a local trail. The hikes will range from easy to moderate. Each hike will begin with a short devotion and end with anyone who wants to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy each other’s company at a nearby coffee house.

Our first hike will be the Hicks Canyon Trail in Irvine. We will meet at Hicks Canyon Park on Viewpark Avenue and Culver in Irvine (just north of Irvine Blvd) at 8am and begin the hike at 8:15am. This is a relatively flat trail and is about 5 miles round trip. After the hike we will walk over to the Starbucks on Irvine Blvd and Culver to relax and chat.

Once you join, you will receive emails about each month's hike and a link to RSVP.
MOVIE GROUP
in 2 Days!
The movie group is excited to start back up! Our March movie is "Belfast." Watch the movie anytime on your own before March 26. Then, gather at Pastor Bob & Jeannie's home at 7pm for dessert and discussion about the movie! If you are already in the Movie Group, you should have received an email to RSVP. If you are NOT in the group, click here to join and get info about each month's movie.
SIMPLE SUPPER
WEDNESDAYS at 6-7pm
Thanks to MESSIAH STUDENTS for hosting! What a nice evening on the patio! They served a variety of soups, salad and bread. All are welcome to come each Wednesday during Lent between 6-7pm in the Joy Center. The dinner is free, but a suggested $5 per person donation is appreciated. Next week, LIVING VINE is hosting on March 30. We hope to see many of you!
NO-SEW BLANKETS
Thanks to everyone who attended the blanket work night last week and all who made blankets at home! We received a total of 56! They were delivered to Crittenton Children & Family Services. They are so grateful for these beautiful, soft gifts! Crittenton also works internationally with Afghanistan and Ukraine. Some of these blankets will make their way to help Ukrainian refugee children. Thanks for being the hands of God!
A special thanks to Sharon Larson and Donna Tucker for leading the work night and to Sharon and Leroy Larson for delivering the blankets to Crittenton!
