GREAT YEAR OF SUNDAY SCHOOL – SUNDAY, MAY 18th!

9:15 – Sunday School End-of-the-Year Program and Brunch

10:30 – Worship – Sunday School Kids sing!

11:30-ish – Congregational COOK-OUT and Celebration!

Don’t miss out of this special day of celebration, as we uplift a great year of Sunday School! We will have a program and brunch at 9:15 a.m., with everyone together (INCLUDING PARENTS!!) in Fellowship Hall. The Sunday School kids will share their favorite songs, teachers will be recognized and thanked, and we will kick off our Vacation Bible School theme with a fun presentation!

Then, at 10:30, we invite everyone to worship together!  The Sunday School kids will sing a special song as part of this service as well!

Last, but not least, the ENTIRE CONGREGATION is invited to share in the Congregational Cookout which will follow the 10:30 worship service (around 11:30 or so…). We’ll grill (weather allowing) and have a fun picnic-style meal in Fellowship Hall.

EVERYONE IS INVITED!

OUR SUNDAY SCHOOL NEEDS SHOE BOXES

 Adult size shoe boxes are needed for our annual Operation Christmas Child Sunday School mission project. If you purchase a pair of new shoes and don’t need the box for anything, please bring it to the church office so our Sunday School kids can fill it with gifts for kids that would not otherwise have Christmas gifts. Thank you! If you have any questions about this project, please contact Millie Balfanz at 439-9675.
