DEACON’S MEETING

Our thoughts and prayers are with Pamela Messenger in the death of her husband, Jim Messenger; and to Barbara Doug-las, David Dickinson and family in the death of their mother, Martha Rose Dickinson. May God bless and comfort you.

SYMPATHY

This Sunday is our annual recognition of our graduates. Many of you have been part of their lives and their Christian formation. It’s been my pleasure to have known some of them since they were born. Let’s celebrate them and their families this Sunday.

Graduation Sundays always stir memories for me: mine back in 1974, and my kids. I begin to feel pretty old when I think that this year marks 20 years since my son stood on the church platform in the old building with the class of 1998. How is that possible?

I’m grateful to Bill Newton for his work on Sunday preaching to us about how fostering and adopting and becoming wrap-around families for those who foster are ways we can tend to Jesus as the stranger and the homeless, the hungry and the one with only the clothes on his back. Remember the meeting, Monday, May 21, in the Youth Area to learn more about how you can help in this opportunity to bless children and Jesus in this kind of work

See you Sunday.

John

GROUPS & CLASSES

Loving Threads If you like to knit, crochet, quilt or sew, the Loving Threads Ministry may be the place for you. The purpose of our group is to use our needlework talents to share the love and com-fort of Jesus Christ with others by making prayer comfort shawls and baby blankets. We meet in RM 131 on the 1st floor, at 1:00 p.m. on the FOURTH Thursday of each month. If you cannot attend the meetings, but would like to partici-pate, call Wanda Thorp, 501-282-3269.

Women on Mission Room 129, from 10:00 - 11:30 a.m., Fourth Thursday each month. We are women who want to grow in faith and actively share the love of Christ in our community and around the world.

Contact Wanda Thorp with questions, 501-282-3269.
