2. Mission to Mars
3. Response to Storms in the South
4. Other Reminders

1. This Sunday (May 1) - With Resurrection Sunday behind us, we will continue in this season of Easter by looking at the rest of John 20. Remember: Ashes to Fire continues through Pentecost (June 12th this year), so keep reading your book!  This Sunday we will look at Jesus' appearance to his followers in the locked room.  This passage holds the infamous conversation with Thomas as well (come to Sunday School for good discussion about the relationship between faith & doubt).  To prepare for worship, read our passages here.  Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!

2. Mission to Mars - An informational session will take place this Sunday May 1 right after service.  Come to find out how you can help plan and implement our Kids Week VBS. Mission to Mars (Meet a Risen Savior) will take place during the week of July 25-29 from 6-8 PM.  If you can't attend the informational session please talk to Dawn Haskell for more information. Check out the theme song here.

3.  Response to Storms in the South - The Board of General Superintendents of the Church of the Nazarene have called for prayer and support for our brothers and sisters in the South affected by the devastating storms of this week.  Read their plea here.  As in the wake of most any disaster in the world, our Nazarene Disaster Response is already at work.  You can support the work financially here.  You can also always bring an offering in response and support to worship with you.  Place it in an offering box, but be sure to mark it clearly.  Ed DiSante also reminds us that there is need for money to ship Crisis Care Kits as well.  Information about that is here. (It costs $12 to ship a box.)
