For more information on this century-old Episcopal tradition supporting the ministries of the Anglican Province of Jerusalem and the Middle East, visit their website. In his annual letter to the church in support of this campaign, Presiding Bishop Rowe notes, "While we pray and work for peace, our siblings in the Holy Land will continue to serve God’s people with hospitals, schools, orphanages, and humanitarian aid programs. These ministries serve people of all faiths without distinction, bearing witness to the power of hope and healing across divides." I invite you to join me in supporting these ministries in this important place at this critical moment of turmoil and uncertainty. Thank you in advance for your prayers and generosity. ~Rev. Erin+ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ From the Office—Ann’s Announcements Birthdays Owen Viola April 6 Justin Cawiezel April 8 Brett Parrish April 8 Ann Peterson April 8  UTO Throughout this Holy Week please remember to pause and give thanks for all that you are blessed with. Remember the joy of giving for the abundance that is received through your relationship with Christ. Give generously to your "little blue box" and be a part of the action of grace that UTO grants provide. Afterall, thanksgiving was never meant to be shut up in a single day. Prayer requests need to be received by Tuesday, if you’d like them to be printed in the bulletin. You may call (308) 632-4626 (leave a message) or email.
The Forward Day by Day’s for February-April are available in regular and large print. If you’d like either of these mailed to you, please email us or call the church office. Comments are closed.
