Hello Hospitality!
There are some new things coming up that you should be aware of. Check out the information below to find out.
Click on the links over on the right side of this Newsletter.
Part of what helps to make us welcoming is knowing what direction to point people in. When people have questions...we have answers. Even when we don't have the answers...we can help find them together. People find it easy to get involved and feel connected when they have other people to reach out to and give them HOSPITALITY.
Thank you for being part of this very important team!
Important reminder for this weekend:
(Remember to put your clocks an hour ahead before you go to bed Saturday night.)

For people who have teens.............
Encounter is at overnight retreat experience for any students 6th-8th grade on March 15-16. Students spend the night in the EPICenter, play games, dodge dodgeballs, study scripture, share meals, worship and grow in their knowledge of God, themselves and each other. This ENCOUNTER’s focus will be centered around “Faith”. What does faith look like in action? What does it mean to have faith in God? Does living faithfully even matter? We will be exploring these questions through teachings and small groups geared towards helping students take ownership of their faith and become fully committed disciples of Jesus.
Cost is $25 for the weekend.
For questions or registration information, contact Jeninne Van Sickle at Jeninne@boredonsunday.com.
