Jesus Is Presented in the Temple (Luke 2:21-40)

SPRING CLEANING WORKDAY
March 21, 8a-12p
We need to clean out the bays, so bring shovels, wheelbarrows and blowers. We need pressure washers to clean the building and sidewalks. We need to pick up downed limbs and other landscaping. We need to do some other landscaping and planting (we’ll supply the plants and tools for that). If we’ve got time, we need to paint handicap zone and quest parking. I’m sure there will be other things that need to be done, so just come and help.

Come, enjoy and participate in a time of worship. We will have congregation singing as well as special music by Chord of Three, Reunion, Tony Anderson, Dustin Sanders, Tonya Evans and others.

They feed over 100 international students each week and go through a lot of paper products.
