Our youth should have received in the mail a list of summer camps. There are camps for all ages. There is a display on the new bulletin board near the woman’s restroom which lists camps, fees and other information. As always, our church wants to help pay the camping fees. As soon as we know how many will be attending camp, we can offer specific scholarships. So, please return the card you received in the mail or pick up one on the bulletin board and indicate that you are interested in attending summer camp. These cards need to be returned to the church office no later than Sunday, March 14 so scholarships can be determined.

Have you noticed the power point presentation in the south entrance to the church? Pastor Woody took some left over computer parts from his home and puts together a weekly update of church events. It runs every Sunday morning. Let him know what you think! (Those I have talked to like it very much, and one person gave it a rating of 12 out of 10)! Thanks, Pastor Woody!

Please give Pastor Woody your suggestions for what you would like to see in the slide show.

6:30 p.m.

The dinner will be $9.00 for adults and teens, 1/2 price for kids 12 & under, and free for kids 4 & under. It will be catered by Pat Spence, with help serving from our men.

The program will be a style show featuring our own women as models, with clothing from the Grapevine Boutique.

Sign-up sheets are on the sound cabinet in the back of the sanctuary AND on the table in the SE entrance area. Men are needed to serve as well.

Thursday night coffee café at First Christian church offers a comforting place to study with friends, a place to gain internet connection for studies after the library closes, and a place to share a snack with friends.

The “café” is open to junior high and high school youth from 7 - 9 p.m. each Thursday night during the school year.

Youth may bring laptops, study, visit quietly, and listen to music.

Coffee, lemonade and light snacks are provided.

Adults who are able to assist may contact Marge Spray, Miriam or Pastor Woody.

Noon, Sunday April 25
