Hi parents & teachers - this Sunday begins HOLY WEEK, and the kids will learn all about Jesus' entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, followed by their annual craft of making palm crosses. Thank you to Jen and George, our teachers, and to Diane and Debbie for assisting with the crosses and the Lenten collection.
Egg Hunt Egg Donations due this Sunday Here's a note from Katie, who organizes our Easter Sunday egg hunt: "Thank you to all the parents who can bring in plastic eggs filled with candy for the egg hunt! I will be out of town this Sunday, but will leave a box on top of the Sunday school cabinet downstairs and you can leave your eggs there. Thank you again!" - Katie (Oliver and Lucie's mom)
Children's Good Friday Service Our annual Good Friday "Stations of the Cross" service is on April 3 at 10 - 11 am. For those who have never attended, this is a child-friendly, interactive walk-through of the last days of Jesus' life, including the Last Supper, the foot washing, the Garden of Gethsemane, and Good Friday. An Easter-themed craft will follow. All welcome, and help spread the word!
Looking for Some Help for Good Friday Craft Parents: if anyone can help oversee our Good Friday craft, please drop me a line right away. The craft is simple, usually potting flowers, which the altar guild picks up for you. I will explain everything so you know what you're doing.
And finally, remember our Lenten project of collecting change to support Episcopal Relief and Development's "Gifts for Life" program. Send your kids to Sunday school with some spare change to help them reach their goal!
Have a good weekend, and see you Sunday!
