| Summer ShareholdersSundays in May | Courtyard
Every Sunday in May, the youth will be fundraising in the courtyard. They’ll use the money for a service week in Bentonville, Arkasas, learning about economic justice! They’re asking people to buy shares in the youth program at $10 a piece before or after worship for the next three weeks. The youth will cook and host a special dinner to thank all our shareholders and share photos of their week later in the summer! |

Service of Worship Sunday @ 11 amScripture: John 21:1-19Come and join us this Sunday as we celebrate our Confirmation Class of 2025. We will be talking about the work we do as a community and our own experiences of faith throughout our lives. For the past year, eleven of our youth have been engaged in learning about faith and what it means to join as a member of the church. During worship the following youth will be confirmed: Kalia Handy Bossma, Grant Busch Whittington, Baylor Clemens, Owen Edwards, Clare Harper, Mae Rooni, Magnolia Smith, Norah Sojoodi, Sawyer Stimpert, Julep Ulack, and Jane Waggoner. We will also celebrate holy communion. Our confirmands will join together in leading various parts of worship including serving communion. As we celebrate these youth, we are reminded that confirmation is not a destination but rather a point along the way in our journey of faith. As well, within the service there will be moments where the congregation affirms their support and care for the confirmands reminding us of the value of community as we follow Jesus’ way of peace, love and justice. |

Lenten Offering Update
This year our lenten offering went to to Austin Region Justice for Our Neighbors and American Gateways. Thanks to your generous donations, we were able to raise $3,040 to help further their good work. These funds will be divided equally between the two organizations so they can continue to support and welcome immigrants |
