New Policy on Transition from the Nursery into Sunday School
Our Sunday School classrooms are based on grade level not age level. In order to bring the nursery in alignment with Sunday School, our Nursery Director, Deborah Cunningham, and our Children, Youth and Family Ministry Director, Lisa Ramish, have decided to have kids transition out of the nursery when they start preK-3 in September rather than transitioning simply because they turn three years old.

Sunrise on Neurodiversity Working Group
Research indicates that children with forms of neurodivergence are less likely — and less able — to participate in faith formation if programs aren’t designed with them in mind.

Lost and Wish It Were Found?
The Altar Guild is looking for a banner that never reappeared after V2020 construction. It was a white background, beige border with 6 panels in the shape of a cross; each could be eastern orthodox icons in beige, red, white, brown. If you know where either/both are, please notify an Altar Guild member.

Help Wanted – Acolyte Coordinator Assistants & Altar Guild Members
The Acolyte Coordinator is looking for a 9 am assistant–or even two. You would ensure the acolytes are ready and know their jobs. While 3 have been part of the team (several are on hiatus) we do have 6 new members who could use your help. Also, the 11:15 Altar Guild is looking for new members. If you can set a table and wash dishes, we’d love to have you join us. We serve about once a month but less frequently if we have more members!

The Next Art Show Pentecost May 24th – Theme: “The Road to Emmaus”
Though it is an Easter reading, it is a Pentecost story. Disciples are fleeing Jerusalem in terror for their lives; yet after they recognize Jesus with them breaking bread, they hurry back. Their fear is gone. The theme should reflect a change, a reversal, a new way of seeing, thinking, or working. Send photos and a brief paragraph of how the work fits the theme by May 16th.
