• St. John's Dinner Service Opportunity coming up on Monday, April 7th. If you've missed the sign-up sheets and would like to participate by donating food (or money toward food), or by helping with food preparation or service, please contact Mary Maples or Tiffany Carter asap.

• Just a reminder that we will continue to be collecting donations for childcare expenses. Please prayerfully consider what you can give each week.
  
• The Women's Retreat is almost here! Join the women of First Covenant at Mission Springs April 18-20 for a wonderful weekend of relaxation, fellowship, teaching, worship, and spiritual renewal! Registration will be accepted until April 16th. If you are interested, grab a flyer and registration form next Tuesday. They will be available on the Welcome table.
  
• Join us next week for our "Lightening Each Others' Load" Brunch! As usual we will have lots of yummy food and time to fellowship. We will also have an activity which will allow you to network with other moms on a few topics of interest. Through the discussions we will be able to meet other moms with similar interests, life situations, or struggles and help each other with suggestions and ideas. Hope to see you there!
  
• Swap Day is coming April 22nd! Before you throw out or donate your gently used baby & kids stuff, save it for out swap! It will be a time for you to bring your stuff, set it out with other's things, and take what you'd like. Then, what's left over will be donated. (More details coming soon on what's ok to bring.)
