PARENTS, DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE?
We have had some issues with your children playing (or rough-housing) in the hallways, particularly in the East Hallway. Children should not be in the East Hallway unless there for a Youth Bible Lesson, or using the drinking fountains, or exiting the building. Parents, please be aware of your children’s location and their activities.
CHURCH FOOD PANTRY (Repeat Announcement):
Thanks to all who have contributed to the Church Food Pantry. The pantry is currently well-stocked, so we are NOT in need of further donations at this time. The generosity of the brethren is much appreciated. Please check with Dave or Jan Ostrom if you are in need of assistance from the food pantry.

OPTIONS FOR NTBMO – APRIL 19:

They have used this restaurant several times in the past. On an information table in the hall will be a sign-up sheet, along with flyers regarding the location, meal information, and the total cost for various meal choices.

Seating will be limited to 40 brethren. A sign-up sheet plus more information, can be found on an information table in the hall.
