There will be no Godly Play Sunday School throughout the Summer months.  We will resume in the Fall, when school is back in session.

The Daughters of the King are hosting an informational brunch for all women of the parish Saturday, June 7, 9:00 am in the church fellowship hall. We will be providing information on this important ministry to help you determine if this is the next step in your spiritual journey. Please RSVP to Beth McKibbin by Thursday, June 5, [email protected] or 308-641-3993. 

From The Daughters of the King:
We are pleased to share that the prayer stone station offered during Lent in the Mary Chapel will continue.  This prayer station has given much solace and comfort to our congregation, and because of requests we've received, we're going to continue to offer this prayer opportunity.  When you feel led to surrender your burdens and worries over to God, please visit the chapel prayer station.


The Daughters of the King have suspended collection of pill bottles for now. Please do not bring bottles to church at this time. We are in the process of cleaning, removing labels and sorting by size and cannot handle any more right now. We will make an announcement when we are ready to begin collection again. Thank you for your overwhelming response to this ministry. 
 
Prayer Requests
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 May-July 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.
