Please remember that family in your prayers. We also extend our sympathy to the family of Randy Williams (an elder at Woodsfield), who passed away after fighting cancer.
VBS Meeting: There will be an important VBS meeting next Sunday at 4:30 in the Fireside Room. Help us get ready for a great week of ministry for our children.
Congratulations: Congratulations to Rachel and Randy Stonebraker. Their second daughter, Olivia Renee was born on Wednesday. She was 5 pounds 10oz and 19 inches. Remember their family in your prayers.
The Pray For Me Initiative: We are launching a new inter-generational church-wide prayer campaign. If you would be willing to commit to pray for a few others from the congregation, and to be prayed for yourself, please sign up on the bulletin. You will be paired with others from the congregation of the same gender but of differing generations so that you might pray for them on a regular basis and they might pray for you. This is open to everyone of all ages. It will be a great way for us to grow together and to seek God’s blessing over our lives! We hope you’ll participate! Don’t forget to sign up your children if you want them to participate.
Ladies’ Class: The ladies class continues on Tuesday at 6pm. Make plans to participate! Invite your friends!
Fellowship Meal: We will have a fellowship meal this evening after our evening worship to celebrate those with birthdays and anniversaries in April. Care Group C is in charge of set-up and clean up.
Clean-Up Day: Our clean-up and work day has been postponed. We will provide an update as soon as we have it rescheduled.
Men’s Breakfast: The Men’s Breakfast, which is usually scheduled for the first Saturday of each month, will be postponed to Saturday, April 14. All the men and boys are invited to Eat’n’Park at 8:30.
College Student Care Packages: We will be collecting items for college student care packages. Items can be placed in the front of the MP room.
MAGI PROJECT: Update All items for the MAGI Project are due before April 29. On the 29th, we will have a “packing party” to put together the boxes. Our biggest need right now is clothing items. We have most of the educational supplies we need, except for coloring books. We still need hygiene items for young children (except tooth brushes & floss), and clothing for all ages. There are cards on the table listing all the needed items.
