Pastor’s Notes
Hello!
With spring in the air, it can be hard to stay focused. The bright colors, fresh air, and sunshine distract us from our daily tasks. The thoughts of summer fun sometimes lead our minds to “check out” of school or work a little early.
This can happen at church, too. Kids who have attended regularly throughout the year sometimes start slipping in participation once the warmer weather arrives.
Please be sure to help your child enjoy the wonders of spring while not neglecting the important regular activities as well. This is important at home, school, and church.
And with Easter upon us, spring is a great time to gather at the church with friends and family to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection. Please note the schedule of Holy Week activities in this newsletter and plan to attend them together.
Thank you for your continued trust and support. It is truly an honor to be able to serve with you in helping your child’s spiritual growth and development.
In Christ,
Pastor Jeff Anderson
