CALLING ALL HIGH SCHOOL, TRADE SCHOOL, & COLLEGE GRADUATES!!!! 
If you, or your child, are graduating this year, please send us your name, what school you’re graduating from, and if you’re able, what your plans are after graduation! We would like to honor these people, pray for them, and also celebrate their accomplishments! Our church family loves and supports you (them) very much!!!! Please send in the information by June 4th! Thank you!

BOOK CLUB:  
Our next book discussion will be on Monday, June 19^th @ 7:00pm on the church patio.  The book we will be reading is “Left on Tenth: A Second Chance at Life” by Delia Ephron. Playwright and screenwriter Ephron’s memoir covers some grim territory: losing a spouse; mourning a cherished sibling (writing partner Nora, who died in 2012 and confronting one’s own mortality (in 2017 Ephron was diagnosed with the same cancer that killed her sister.) But this endearing read is anything but depressing thanks to vibrant, witty storytelling, a second chance at love and the hovering hope of a happy ending right out of a movie, like the Ephron’s’ “You’ve Got Mail”. Hope to see everyone on June 19^th for fun, fellowship and discussion.

ALPHA BIBLE STUDY:  Consider joining us for Alpha Bible Study, Wednesdays, from 6 -7:30 pm thru July 19th. The format of Alpha is that there is a dinner served, short devotion time, view a video on the scripture, and then small group discussion.  If you were unable to attend, please come this week if you can! And invite a friend or neighbor to come! The Alpha is set-up that it would be fine for someone to drop-in on a session at any time. Also, there are many opportunities if you want to help with food, set-up and clean-up. Most importantly please continue to pray for the power and love of the Holy Spirit to be at work with our Alpha.

COFFEE HOUR: 
Please consider hosting coffee hour and sign-up on the bulletin board.  Fellowship is so important to the life of the church and why not have a little snack at the same time!
