PORCH: Keep bringing non-perishables and canned goods to church. These items are taken to those with food insecurity needs in the area. FeedingAmerica.org indicates that 15.4% of North Carolinians are challenged with food insecurities; so about 1 in every 6-7 people don’t have enough food. Let’s keep helping!

Greensboro Tornado Recovery Support: We are continuing to collect school supplies and non-perishable food items. A list of needed school supplies is on a flyer in the narthex. There is an area on the back credenza to place the items. One batch has already been taken to Ebenezer Lutheran Church in Greensboro for distribution. We have requested an update on current and future needs and will let you know as soon as we received a response.

Summer Schedule: June 3 will be the final day of Sunday Adult Bible Study, Confirmation, and Sunday School before summer break. May 29 is the final Tuesday Evening Men’s Bible Study. The Tuesday Evening Women’s Bible Study will continue through the summer. All classes will resume beginning September 9.

The slate for the election for the 2018-2020 term: Vice President – Ron Hinkle, Treasurer – Jennifer Simis, Fellowship – Co-chairs Lois Durr and Maryanne Warne, Outreach – Co-chairs Lydia Berrong and Carolyn Jones, Worship – Peggy Earnhardt, Elder (2018-2021) – John Stow
