Thank You from our Children & Youth
Last week’s Spaghetti Dinner garnered over $1400 in support of the Montreat Worship & Music Conference in June and the Montreat Youth Conference in July. Their last fundraiser will be a Boston Butt sale. Registration will be available for those who would like to make a purchase at a cost of $40 for a May 10 pick-up at Sea Eagle on Boundary Street OR special delivery to other possible sites if
designated on the sign up sheet. Our young people are thankful for your faith in them and your continued strong support.
Annual Men’s Retreat
Our men of the church, thankful for the sunshine and beautiful spring weather, return home after a full weekend of Christian fellowship and a study of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. Pair-o-Island proved again to be a wonderful venue as it offered a beautiful sunrise yesterday and today and the natural beauty of the low country. A big “thank you” to Mike Yoakum and his crew for the planning and logistics that makes this adventure so successful. +

Presbyterian Women
Circle Meetings (Small Groups) on April 14
We’d love for the women of the church to consider this invitation to meet with either the morning group at 10:00 or the evening group at 6:00 as they continue their exciting journey through “Let Justice Roll Down: God’s Call to Care for Neighbors and All Creation.” Together, members of PW are exploring what it means to love our neighbors and to take care of the wonderful world around us. Come and be a part of a warm and welcoming conversation with Presbyterian Women – where faith, friendship, and action come together. We can’t wait to see you there!
