GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

We are looking for a few good men to help kick-off the Gen2Gen Ministries program. Gen2Gen is a mentorship program where CCO men establish mentoring relationships with CCO teen boys, in association with hobbies of common interest (fishing, golf, cars, archery, disc golf, woodworking, bowling, etc.).  Why not share your hobby related experiences and knowledge with a young man who has a passion for the same hobby as you?  Along the way, you could help nurture and support them in their faith journey. 
To learn if Gen2Gen is right for you, please attend our informational meeting on April 21st at 10:15am (During Foundations). We will meet in Room 2 (the first classroom east of the worship center). If you are interested but cannot attend, please call the church office at (920) 231-7070.

Child Dedication is a ceremony that dedicates a child to God and welcomes them into the church. Parents also dedicate themselves to raising the child in a Godly home.
If you are interested in having your child dedicated, please join Pastor Tommy at the Child Dedication class on May 5th at 10am.

Join us to serve at the Day by Day Warming Shelter by providing and serving a meal. Sign up HERE for the date you wish to serve and let us know what items you will be bringing for the meal.
