Note: Pastor Mark will be returing from vacation on June 2. If you have a need or prayer concern, please contact one of the Calling Elders.
VBS: Vacation Bible School is almost here! Be sure to get signed up; registration closes on June 1. Don't miss out on a fun week at Rainforest Falls! We are also collecting clean, non-holey cotton socks to use for our nativity staining project. Socks can be dropped off with your church director or placed in the collection box in your church. If you are helping with VBS, please check your church mailbox for an important VBS information sheet. Thank you to everyone for your willingness to help serve and lead these kids! Couldn't do it without you!
FUSION (Jr. High): August 2–6, students will attend a 4-day camp at Swan Lake near Viborg, SD. Camp will include Bible lessons, swimming, games, and plenty of fun activities. Please sign up online if your student plans to attend. We’re looking forward to a great summer of faith, service, and fun! - https://efrc.me/fusion. Registration deadline is June 15.
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!
Bloodmobile: There will be a Red Cross blood drive at the First Reformed church in Edgerton on Monday, June 15 from 12:30 until 6:30pm. Please call Betty at 507-227-8416 or fbhuisen@gmail.com to make or confirm an appointment. There is a constant need for blood. We are looking for new blood donors. Every 2 seconds someone/somewhere in the U.S.A. needs a unit or two of blood. Anyone 16 yrs (with parental consent) or older and in good health is able to donate.
Thank you! Thank you! The ATLAS for Life Always Growing Greenhouse is coming to a close (or is closed) for the 2026 season. Your support is greatly appreciated as each flower and plant purchased aids in the mission of ATLAS to bring hope in Christ to Pipestone County and surrounding areas. Soak in the joy of the beauty of those flowers and gardens, and continue to shine your light for Christ!
