ANNOUNCEMENTS
On this Sixth Sunday of Easter, we hear Jesus’ promise that we are not left alone. He assures his disciples—and us—that we are not orphaned, but given an Advocate, the Holy Spirit, to be with us and within us always. The Spirit, our Paraclete, comes alongside us to sustain, guide, and empower us to love as Christ has commanded. On this Mother’s Day, we also give thanks for those who have reflected that same abiding presence in our lives, offering care, encouragement, and steadfast love.
We are pleased to introduce our Transition Team, who will work with Pastor Julie to guide our congregation through this season of pastoral transition. They will help us reflect on our past, understand our present, and discern our future together. We give thanks for Rich Kangas, Bob Plank, Kathy Welsh, and Marti Willis, and their willingness to serve in this important ministry.
Presbyterian Men will meet Tuesday, May 12 at 5:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall for Bible study and dinner fellowship. Bring a dish to share for the potluck dinner. All men are welcome.
Presbyterian Women will meet Wednesday, May 13 at noon in the Fellowship Hall for Bible study, fellowship, and a light lunch. All women are welcome.
Next Sunday during worship, we will celebrate our high school graduates, Jason Stanley and Kelly Wells. We give thanks for their accomplishments and mark this important milestone in their lives as they prepare for what comes next. If you or someone you know is graduating this season—whether from high school, college, or another program—please let the church office know so we can include them in this time of celebration.
The Session has called for a congregational meeting to be held at the close of worship on Sunday, May 31. The purpose of this meeting is to elect an elder to fill an unexpired term on the Session. We encourage all members to be present as we participate together in the leadership and life of the church.
Summer Choir – All are welcome! Our Summer Choir returns this year, meeting on the first Sunday of each month beginning Sunday, June 7, 2026. We’ll gather in the Fellowship Hall at 9:00 AM to rehearse and prepare a piece for that morning’s worship service. Whether you sing regularly or just enjoy making music, you’re invited to join us—no long-term commitment required!
