Announcements

Thank you: Thank you, Diane & Mark Brockberg, for your 8 years of dedicated service leading our youth group. Your time, energy, and faithful guidance have made a lasting impact on the lives of so many students. We are so grateful for the way you poured into our youth and helped them grow in their faith!

Vacation Bible School: What an incredible week at VBS! We had a fantastic turnout with 203 kids and over 75 volunteers joining us for our “True North” adventure. A huge thank-you to everyone who helped make this week a success! We are also excited to share that we raised $1,700 for Lost Timber Bible Camp in Chandler, MN, through our mission offering. God moved mountains this week, and we’re so grateful for our local church families that help point kids to Jesus!

Name Change Discussion: Today is the last day to get in your questionnaires regarding the possibility of a name change in your mailboxes. Please fill them out and return TODAY. This is the only way we know where the congregation stands regarding the name change. If you have any questions or would like to talk more about it, feel free to reach out to anyone on the committee: Merri Post, Bill Post, Jason Snyder, Caitlin Arp, Amy Van Hulzen, Pat Fey, Elmer Pietz, Shelli Menning, Hope Snyder, Rihanna Hulstein, or Kami Smit.

Note: Due to the holiday the bulletin will be printed early next week. Please have all announcements in by 9:00 a.m.on Thursday.

This year’s theme is “To All Generations,” drawn from Psalm 146. We will gather to sing a variety of Psalms and give praise to the Lord who reigns forever. A time of fellowship will follow the service.
