This is one of the weeks where there is not much to say. There has been much going on in the life of the church in leading up to Easter and the weekend itself. For many of the students the term is wrapping up and plans are being made. To the students: be sure to let us know where you are going this summer, and let’s stay in contact. My Easter weekend was busy as we enjoyed celebrating the resurrection, dinner with friends and family and our kids birthday.

This coming Sunday is communion and as well we want to celebrate those who are graduating. We will also be blessed to have Pastor Brent come and bring the teaching. It will be a great morning.
