HEADLINE NEWS

Get Your Voice in the Conversation Sign up HERE or at the Welcome Center (space is limited):

We’ve got some important conversations coming up about our denominational direction, and these gatherings are designed to be a place to listen, learn, and share your perspective.

Choose one session to attend (sign-up is required):

• Sunday, April 19 | 4:00–5:30 PM

• Wednesday, April 22 | 6:30–8:00 PM

• Sunday, May 3 | 10:15–11:45 AM

These are opportunities to hear where things stand, what’s being discussed, and to offer your feedback before any recommendation comes forward from Consistory.  

Bee There for the Finale! Wednesday, April 15 Sign up HERE, or visit the Welcome Center.

We’re closing out this season of Wed. Night Family Meals with one final gathering—and we’d love to have you there.

Dinner service begins at 5:00 PM (come when you can).

This week’s menu is a crowd-pleaser: chicken tenders, mac & cheese, green beans, rolls with honey butter, and cupcakes—with gluten-free options available.

Over 200 people joined us last month, and we’re grateful for how these meals have brought people together. For this final night, we’re adding a little something extra after dinner—a relaxed, all-ages time to linger, connect, and enjoy being together.

No pressure, nothing complicated—bring your family, invite a friend… and don’t just eat and run. Or… you’ll bee sorry.

HELP: Child-Sized Tables Needed (Soon!) We’re looking to borrow 4–6 child-sized tables for our April 15 Family Night Finale to help our youngest have space as they learn to Bee Like Jesus. Contact Peg or Jill at 920.564.2319 or email plemkuil@frcoostburg.org or jvervelde@frcoostburg.org if you can help.

Some of our FRC’ers live in assisted living homes and are not able to regularly attend worship. Let’s raise up prayers for them this week!

  • Pine Haven Oostburg: EJ Caljouw, Sunday Guenther, Ron & Judy Joosse, Dale & Karen Nuestel, Carol Roerdink, Gerry Vander Ploeg and Neil & Phyllis Vander Ploeg. (With this many familiar faces at PH Oostburg, it’s starting to feel like a party waiting to happen!)
  • Cedar Grove Gardens: Harley & Jeanne Hilbelink and Mary Jo Oonk
  • Pine Haven Sheboygan Falls: Anita Daane, Wayne Huenink, John Wildeman and Eileen Ver Duin
  • Harvest Home: Sheri Hafeman

Youth Sunday is coming April 26… Senior Avery Hoffmann takes on a topic we all know a little too well: temptation. (Yep… even the kind involving your phone, your schedule, and that extra cookie.)  

Community Spring Clean-Up – Sat., May 16 A perfect chance to get the whole family involved—serving, smiling, and making our community shine. Sign-up coming next week.

Population Growth Six babies in the queue for baptism… there must be something in the water, again. Prayer and Mission Circles—best to stick with coffee.

Pray For

PTL - Craig Mentink is feeling so much better that he was in church last week (not that we’re stalking or anything)! Thank you for praying - keep it up!

Let’s lift up our FRC family and friends in prayer this week:

  • Terri Mentink — for minimal side effects following her recent chemo treatment.
  • Mary Rauwerdink — as she receives another chemo treatment this Tuesday.
  • Harold Veldboom — as he undergoes heart bypass surgery Monday at Aurora Hospital in Grafton.
  • Henry De Blaey, Aaron, and Morgan — as they attend an important GI appointment this week.
  • Sue Hartmann — for a smooth and complication-free recovery from surgery.
  • Maatilor Josiah and Abe Swart — for protection, strength, and peace as they serve in uncertain and potentially dangerous areas.

Each name is a story - thank you for carrying them in prayer this week.
