PASTOR FOR YOUTH AND FAMILY MINISTRIES UPDATE. Back in February,
Redeemer designated two seminarians for this pastoral position. We were praying
that the Lord would open the door for one of them to be placed with us but
neither one was. Please pray for the Lord’s direction as we consider our
options.
THANK YOU to all who came to support the Red Folk Youth
in our Easter breakfast! We hope all enjoyed everything. The Youth
worked VERY hard preparing this feast for you. Praise Jesus for
putting the "extra loaf" out for us!
