For the last few months, I have found inspiration on Wednesday nights. It is fun to see everyone who comes for various activities and meetings, but I have also found great inspiration from those who come to clean the church. People are vacuuming, dusting, scrubbing, polishing, and tidying every inch of the building. I think the church is actually cleaner than it was when we had professionals coming!

Join us for four evenings of Shake it Up! Where we learn to carry out God’s recipe! We are trying something new at the request of our youth. They would like to have their own VBS before the children’s VBS. The youth have said that as much as they love working in VBS being on staff, they don’t want to miss any of the fun or the Bible stories! Yes. That’s what they said. We will study the same Bible stories the children and adults will be studying, but these lessons are named at youth. We will learn how to be ready for God’s call, give happily to God and others, believe in Jesus as God’s son, and remember Jesus’ life and teachings. While we are learning, we will also be preparing for the children to come the following week. God calls us to shake up our lives and follow Him! Come learn with us how to carry out God’s recipe.
We have a HUGE Wednesday evening planned for this week.
Dinner will be served at 5:15 from now on to help keep us on time for 6:00 Bible Study.
This week’s menu:
Lasagna

Bread

Please come to our rescheduled council meeting immediately after worship, on April 18. Everyone is welcome, and we have many exciting projects in the pipeline. Your input is very important. Come and throw in your two cents.
Our church website is an amazing tool. A wonderful thing happened as a result of our website. The new Young Adult Sunday School Class is studying 10 Things I Hate About Christianity, and the author of the book, Jason Berggren sent us a very encouraging comment. Go to hickorybendumc.com and read Jason’s reaction to our book study.
