Hello Everyone, Last Sunday, May 27, we gathered in worship and community. It was Pentecost Sunday. Gloria Neunaber had an electric fan with streamers for the children's story to talk about the Holy Spirit. The Acts 2 story of the coming of the Holy Spirit was read during worship. Jared Diener and Dixie Yoder played a guitar/violin duet during the offering. It was a day of sunshine and warmth. The fruit and doughnuts at coffee time were delicious.
