ANNOUNCEMENTS

Food donations during May will go to the Salvation Army.

The Youth Group is once again asking for food for our Sunday evening meetings.  This doesn’t have to be a full meal, although they love those!  Anything is greatly appreciated.  There is a sign-up sheet at the Welcome Center.  Thanks again from our youth for your continued support.

The next Blood Drive is scheduled for tomorrow, May 5. There is a signup sheet at the welcome center where you can volunteer to help with registration, driving, or tear down.  If you want to donate blood, call the Red Cross at 1-800-733-2767.

"Loved First" Ministry Garage Sale - Thursday, May 15, 9am-5 pm, Friday, May 16, 9am-5pm and Saturday, May 17, 9am-2 pm.  As you are spring cleaning your houses, barns and sheds, think of this garage sale! We will take all items. These can be dropped off at the Lederman's on Wednesday, May 14th and if they do not sell, can be picked up Saturday after the sale. We will also need helpers for all three days. There is a volunteer sign up list at the Welcome Center. Thanks in advance for all your contributions and help with this project!
