FROM: The Family Ministry team

June's Wednesday night VBS program is all about "We need a Shepherd"
Dinner is served (love offering) from 5:30 - 6:30 PM each Wednesday in June.
The program for DK-5th graders runs from 6:30 - 8:00PM. Great time of singing, playing, making crafts and learning about Jesus!

 

Note: If we have good weather Sunday afternoons/evenings; after the normal bible lesson, the kids will have hang-time outside.  They tend to go down the road to the private Christian elementary school ball field (on 87th street) and play kick ball or across the street to play basketball or to Houseman's for ice cream (when really warm).  Please contact Jerry Hamm with any questions.

Dear All,


Peace be to you all.
Our Family Ministry Team has been working on the concerns mentioned at the Parent Meeting. Attached is an "Update" to the concerns laid out. Again we thank Betty Brown and Shawn Tilstra for using their administrative gifts and laying them out so neatly. We will continue to keep the community updated and will be looking for ways for us all to get on the same page together.  We remain committed to serving Christ and this community to the best of our abilities. Thank you for your grace and patience as we continue to learn and grow in this new paradigm.
Blessings to you all.
 

~Jerry
