Easter Egg Hunt Candy

For the month of March we will have

boxes out for candy to stuff eggs for the

Easter Egg Hunt.

We will have one box in the back of the

sanctuary and one in the hallway outside

of the Fellowship Hall.

Easter Egg Hunt will be Sunday, April 5

from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm.

Next Sunday, March 22 we will take up a

special offering for UMCOR Sunday.

In the bulletin there is a hand print. Please

write in the hand the first name of a loved

one or someone you know who needs

prayer. Then leave in the basket on your

way out.

Also, please start saving gently used

clothes you would like to donate, and bring

them with you to Church on Palm Sunday.

We need these for the 11:00 am worship

service.
