SUNDAY WORSHIP
May 11 @ 10a
The final prayer that Jesus prayed was not just for the disciples, it was for anyone who would believe in Him one day. His prayer is for people like you and me. The essence of His request is that His followers would be one, as He and the Father are one. Resurrection hope comes from knowing that in the midst of a divided world, we can trust that the love of Jesus knows no bounds.

JOY CLUB
May 14 @ 11:30a
Calling all senior adults (whether you feel like it or not), to come together for a time of food and fellowship. This month the group is going out to eat at DJ's Pizza & Steak House in Woodbury. Be there by 11:30a and if you want to carpool, meet at the church by 11a. Please sign up by May 11 so reservations can be made.

Lori and I will be out of town a lot for the next couple of weeks. We are going on vacation to Orlando to visit with our oldest daughter, Molli Kate, from May 13-16.  Then we are leaving for our pre-mission trip to Virginia on the afternoon of May 18 and will return on the 23rd. So, we won’t be missing any Sunday’s, but if you need me during those dates, please understand I will be out of state.

But I look forward to seeing you at church this Sunday as we conclude our Resurrection series and celebrate Mother’s Day. Love God—Love People! –  pastor joe
