From the Deacons
Church-wide Work
Day, Saturday, March 20th
It's time to do some
Spring cleaning and yard work. Items to
be done will include weeding of flower
beds, installation of bedding materials,
filling in holes in parking lots,
filling in holes on the PE field,
distributing fertilizer on all grass
areas and, weather permitting, we would
like to power wash sidewalks and spray
areas to remove rust. Some minor repair
and maintenance will be done to our
facilities as well. We will start at
8:00 am and try to finish around lunch
time. A continental breakfast will be
available. If you plan to stay through
the morning, lunch will also be
provided. The more folks that come will
allow us to get more work done in a
shorter period of time. If you have any
questions, please contact
Glenn Hayes, 624-9524.
Friendly Reminder
Has anyone seen or
borowed one of the round, white tables
from the Fellowship Hall? We seem to be
short 1 table. Please remember that the
white tables and chairs are not to be
borrowed from the Fellowship Hall.
However, we do have about 40 metal
chairs that are available to be loaned
out. If you would like to borrow these,
please contact Glenn
Hayes or any Deacon to make the
request.

Adult Sunday School Classes
The leadership
vision for Sunday School is that we
would develop more intently, not merely
classes--as important as teaching
is--but into Sunday School
communities, where we not only
learn God's Word together, but share our
thoughts, hearts, prayers and lives with
one another. Please pray over one of
the three offered communities that will
begin on Sunday March 7th and
commit to one for the sake of Covenant
and the glory of Christ.
Adult Sunday School
Community #1
Words of Assurance, a study
and discussion on letter of 1 John.
Led by Lamar Allen & Bob Hayes in
Room 202
Adult Sunday School
Community #2
Shepherding a Child's Heart,
video and discussion on parenting.
Led by Jay Trumbull & Rocky Welch in
Room 203
Adult Sunday School
Community #3
Teachings on Community, a
ladies Bible study fellowship.
Led by Charlene Humphrey in the
Library

Mercy Uganda Spring Banquet
|
|
Saturday, May 1st
Special music, testimonies,
entertainment and good food.
The proceeds from the banquet will help
offset the cost of the summer mission trip,
which will provide more money that can be
directly used in ministry work there.
More details coming soon.

Church/School Telephone Changes
We are
updating the phone system at the church and
school to make it easier to direct calls.
As of Monday, March 8th, please dial
769-9354 for church related calls and
769-7448 for school related calls.
You can still reach anyone at the church or
school with either number and voice mail
access remains the same. However, by using
the numbers above, it improves the
efficiency of handling your call.
Thanks for your help!
