WATCH AT THE CROSS PRAYER VIGIL Thursday, April 1 to Easter Sunday, April 4
If you would like to spend some quality time preparing yourself for Easter morning, then please sign up for the Watch at the Cross Prayer Vigil. You can spend time praying, meditating, listening to music, singing, reading, or whatever the Spirit leads you to do to focus on the death and resurrection of our Lord. This continuous vigil starts immediately following the Maundy Thursday service in our sanctuary and concludes Easter morning. A sign up sheet is located in the fellowship hall. Sign up as an individual, family, with a friend, or as a study group. The blocks of time are in one hour increments, but you are welcome to sign up for several if you wish. What a great way to experience the risen Lord in humility!

SPRING WORK PARTY – SATURDAY, MARCH 27, 9am-12 noon
Easter is approaching and Property and Grounds is planning a work party to help prepare the building and grounds for the holy season. There are numerous tasks needing attention but the main focus will be exterior. After a long winter, there is much cleanup work to do. Also look for opportunity to commit to season long support by participating in the Adopt-a-Garden Spot program, where volunteers care for small, manageable sized plots and thus help share the work load in maintaining our large property. Please consider donating one morning to work alongside your friends in faith and help prepare an inviting facility for Palm Sunday and Easter. If you have questions or suggestions, contact Scott Pantaleo or Clancy Young.
YOUNG FAMILIES EASTER PARTY & DINNER POTLUCK Saturday, March 27th at 5pm Bring a kid-friendly dish to share. Also, bring a dozen filled plastic eggs for each child participating in the Easter egg hunt. After dinner, we'll do an Easter craft followed by an egg hunt. Please contact Susan Boyles for more information.

If you would be willing to spend an evening, stay overnight, or help on the breakfast/cleanup crew on Sunday morning, please contact Marty Warr or Kim Randall. The program runs through the end of March so we still have a few weekends left, and we'd like to be able to continue to offer this support to those in need. Thank you.
