LET’S PLAN SOMETHING FUN!
We’re looking for someone with ideas for our next fun church gathering! Whether it’s a movie night here at the church, a game night, or another simple idea, we’d love to hear from you. Let us know, and we’ll help you get started and make it happen together!
SPONSOR A SNOWFALL
Each time it snows, we pay $150 to have our parking lot cleared. While most of us can’t help with plowing, you can still support this important need by sponsoring a snowfall! If you’d like to cover the cost of one snow event, please email the church office. Thank you for helping us keep our parking lot safe and accessible!
SAVE THE TREES!
Please save any artificial Christmas Trees that you or anyone you know plan on getting rid of after Christmas. We'll take all sizes: tall, short, super short, skinny, fluffy, whatever. We'll be using them for VBS 2025! Talk to Dawn Eberhart with any questions.
ANNUAL MEETING
Join us for the church's annual meeting on Sunday, January 26, right after the worship service. Following the meeting, we will have a potluck meal where everyone is welcome to enjoy food and fellowship with one another.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The River of LIFE Board of Directors is seeking individuals who are interested in serving on the board. This is a great opportunity to contribute to the leadership and mission of our church. If you feel called to serve, please speak with Pastor or one of the current board members to learn more about this important role.
JR & SR HIGH YOUTH GROUP
Youth Group is off to a great start! Each week begins with a shared meal, a favorite part of the evening for the kids, and we invite families to help keep this tradition going by signing up to provide a meal. The signup link is in the “Helpful Links” section on our website and church app. If no one signs up by 5:00pm on Tuesday, we’ll send out a message and cancel the meal for that week. We understand everyone’s ability to help looks different. So whether you can provide a full meal, contribute part of it, or offer monetary support, let us know, and we’ll make it work! If others in the congregation are interested in helping, we’d love to hear from you. Let’s come together as a church to make these meals happen!
GARAGE SALE ITEMS
Are you cleaning out your closets, decluttering your house, or planning to donate to a thrift store? Consider bringing your items to church to support the River of LIFE Youth Group's Huge Spring Garage Sale Fundraiser! Proceeds will go toward their July 2025 trip to New Orleans. Donations of clean, good-condition items can be placed in the hallway across from the water fountain. The sale is tentatively scheduled for the week after Easter. Thank you for supporting the Youth Group's trip to The Gathering!
