Happy Easter: Isaiah 53:5 “But he was pierced for our sins, crushed for our iniquity. He bore the punishment that makes us whole; by his wounds we were healed.” Jesus, 1, Devil, 0. Enjoy today.
Important Reminder for Parents!: We will NOT be having an EDGE session on this Easter Sunday morning, March 31st. We will resume our EDGE sessions next Sunday, April 7th. Have a great day with your family.
A Perfect 10: What are the 10 Commandments? Are they just a set of rules or a way to live our lives to experience peace and joy? We’ll rap about this and more at our EDGE session next Sunday.
Clean Up Cortona Hall: All youth in middle school and high school along with their families are invited to “Clean Up Cortona Hall” on Saturday, April 13th from 11:00AM-2:00PM. We will give the building where we have our EDGE sessions a sprucing up; to show we care about what we have. This is a great direct service opportunity for all and one that will impact our youth ministry in a visible way. Lunch and drinks will be provided. We’ll need rakes, shovels, buckets, and scrub brushes if you can bring them. Please let Nathan Eten know by Thursday, April 11th, if you are able to commit to serving on April 13th. Youth who do not have a parent on site will be required to fill out a release form. All parishioners are welcome to volunteer if they feel called to.
