Bible Trivia!

You’re invited to play! On Sundays May 1, 8, and 15 at 10 am, adults and children are invited to the Great Room for Bible Trivia.

Don’t know much about the Bible? That’s okay! This is about playing and learning with people of all ages. Children’s Sunday School teachers will be present, but we want parents to join us too.

Don’t have kids? This is the perfect time for you to get to know some of the children in our congregation. Join us!

Muffins for Jacob’s Learning Ladder: May 5 and 6

It’s time to offer a blessing to Jacob’s Learning Ladder Families.  Each spring we set aside a couple of days and greet families with coffee and muffins when they come to drop-off their children. This small gesture goes a long way in extending care from our congregation to families, and we need your help.  Sign up at the church to either bake muffins (drop them off at Grace on May 1) or to be here to greet and share.

Questions?  Contact Merodee Grannis, Nancy Morrow, Chris Alexander, or Maggie McIntire.

Yellow Bag Sundays

Yellow Bag Sundays: May 2016

On the first Sunday of each month, you’re encouraged to take home a re-usable yellow grocery bag, put some non-perishable items in it, and bring it back the next week, or soon thereafter.  This month our contributions go to the food pantry at Mount Vernon Presbyterian Church.  Consider bringing proteins such as canned meat and beans.
