Note: Pastor Mark will be on vacation from May 23 - June 2. If you have a need or prayer concern, please contact one of the Calling Elders.

Thank you to Pastor Mark and the congregation for all the prayers, visits, texts, and phone calls during Dad's time in hospice and after his passing. Also, thank you to the people from the work group who donated food and worked the funeral. Everyone's acts of kindness during the difficult time will forever be cherished.

EDGE Youth Trip: We wanted to share that due to low interest and participation, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the EDGE Youth mission trip to Annville, Kentucky, with Grace Covenant Ministries this summer. Looking ahead, Grace Covenant Ministries will be traveling through our area this fall as part of a speaking tour, and have asked if we'd like to host them. We look forward to that opportunity and hearing personally how God is working through them!
