Dear Folks,
May the fire of Pentecost still
be burning in our hearts now and always!
This coming Sunday, May 22,
is Children's Sunday. We will also be remembering Robert
Wilson and all the dairy farmers. In celebration, please join
us for an ice cream social, graciously provided by Gertrude Wilson,
following worship.
The scripture reading for Sunday
is Luke 18:15-17. The sermon will be a Bag Message. The
bag item will be provided by Spencer Keith.
After the ice cream social, we
can walk off all those calories on our Prayer Walk. Make sure
you wear your walking shoes and your church T-shirt if you have
one!
Music Sunday is May 29, so please
plan on attending for some great tunes!
