This Sunday, we’ll dedicate our Mother’s Day offering to Church World Service and remember, celebrate, and pray for the mothers and mother-figures in our lives.

30 brand-new Bibles will soon grace the pews in our sanctuary, and you have the chance to dedicate one of them! Dedications can be made in honor or memory of a loved one with a donation of $20. Dedication Forms are available at the back of the sanctuary, and can be placed along with your donation in the offering plate, or to the church office.

A huge “thank you” and shout out to all the volunteers who helped set up, staff up, and clean up for last Saturday’s Pop-Up Thrift Shop, which raised over $2000 for outreach!

If you’d like to volunteer to represent our church at Walpole Day, please contact Pastor Shepherd. (Any amount of time is welcome!)
