We need nut-free baked goods for our fellowship time after worship services! Bring
any items in labeled and dated freezer bags. Please note if they are gluten and/or
egg-free.
We’d love to have more servers also!

practice is Sunday, April 7th. (NO practice after worship on March 24 or Easter,
March 31.)
Youth in 5th grade through high school are invited to sing in our YOUTH choir. Meet

Mission Opportunity - Rice Donations Needed
During the month of March, we will be collecting 2 – 5 pound bags of white rice to
deliver to Riverton Park United Methodist Church. Each month we will add to our
monetary donation with an item that they are regularly in need of, as they work to
support those staying at their church. Drop off your donation in the box in the
narthex.
Thanks in advance for your participation in our support of our sister congregation.
Thank you, also, Dianne and Mike, for volunteering to deliver our donation each
month!
