THIS WEEK’S HEADLINERS

SO THIS HAPPENED…Our fearless Investigative Reporter happened upon this absolute disaster (left) earlier this week, and folks, it’s a doozy. 😬 The moral of the story? Never, ever, trust Pastor Toby with your decorating needs. 😅🎨 Trust us, you’d be finding glitter in your hair for weeks. 🧑‍🎨✨

🔭 👁️CSI OOSTBURG. Working overtime this week, our fearless Investigative Reporter also uncovered a series of threats wreaking havoc down the FRC’s hallways. With the 2nd annual Cornhole Tourney just one week away, we think Team Daane (who didn’t place in last year’s cornhole tournament, by the way) is threatening to make a clean sweep in every round. Or, at least we think that’s what we heard. 🌽🎯 There’s still room to sign up your 2-person team. Online readers register HERE or go to frcoostburg.org. The odds of Team Daane’s quest for the trophy significantly diminish as more teams sign up, just say’in. Come watch the action starting at 2 pm on Mar. 2!

CHILDREN’S MINISTRY PARENTS - Children's Sunday is only one week away!  That's 7 days, or 168 hours, or 10080 minutes!  We are so excited! Please practice song & scripture with your child (2nd-5th grade solo pieces,) and we look forward to seeing the kids in the fellowship hall by 8:40 on March 2nd! The kids are truly looking forward to leading our service!

HEY FIFTH GRADERS! You do NOT want to miss this epic afternoon of fun! Join us on March 9 from 1-3 PM for snacks, a devotion, and a whole lot of laughter as we roll the dice and play Bunco! 🥳✨Trust us—this is gonna be a blast, and you’ll want in on the action! Check out the Sign-Up Genius HERE so you don’t miss out! 🎉🎲😃

OODLES of NOODLES are heading your way on Wed., March 12th at the next Wed. Nite Family Meal.
