Camp Wyoming sign-up time!!
     Please sign up by May 31 for your choice of camping experience at Camp Wyoming.  Information and registration forms are available from Pam Lica.  There are all types of camps for all ages.  Remember that our church will pay 50% of the cost for each camper and there are additional scholarships available.
 

May Craft for Shut-ins
     This month the children will be making spring and summer flowers to bring to each of our shut-ins.  This cheerful bouquet will remind them that they are loved during the bright and colorful months ahead!  We will not be making crafts during the summer months, but will resume the crafts in September when Sunday School begins in the fall.
 

Adult Sunday School Class for Spring Quarter
     April 20, April 27, and May 4 the adult class will study the Peace, Unity and Purity of our church.  On May 11 and May 18 they will study what it means to be a Presbyterian.  Please join them.
 

Recognition Sunday on May 18
     Special recognition of students and teachers will take place during the Sunday School opening at 9:00 on May 18.  During this time students will receive attendance awards.  We hope that everyone will attend this special event on our last Sunday School session until we resume on September 7.  We also wish to thank parents and grandparents for getting your children to Sunday School.  This helps provide a strong foundation for their Christian faith.
