The Life & Nurture Commission is planning a fellowship night tonight, Mar. 20 at 6:00 PM.  You will be cruising the streets of Sunnybreeze via video to see what our “snowbirds” are doing.  This will be followed by a snack/fellowship time.  Bring finger food.

We are having some issues with our church email.  Until it is resolved, please use locustgrove@gmail.com for sending us emails.

Congratulations to Darian & Christen Kirby on the birth of their second son, William Finch, on March 14.  He weighed 6# 10oz. and was 19 in. long.  I’m sure big brother Jameson (almost 2) will be very helpful.  William’s grandparents are Chris & Kerri Kahila and his great grandma is Beth (Finch) Miller.  May God bless and protect this family.

Sympathy and prayers go to Florence Wickey and family in the recent death of her husband Bill.  Bill was also a brother to Erv and Ed Wickey.  Funeral services were held here yesterday with Jim Gerber officiating.  May God give all the family comfort and peace.

Our library has recently received numerous donated books.  Come check them out!
