What to Expect Sunday, May 19:

Coffee and Donuts: This Sunday will be the last day for coffee and donuts until the fall, so be sure to enjoy some fellowship time before worship.

Worship at 9:30am: It's Pentecost Sunday! You're invited to wear red to remind ourselves of the fire of the Spirit the Apostles witnessed in Jerusalem.

Annual Meeting: The meeting will take place immediately after worship. Please note that this meeting will not be livestreamed, so we encourage you to attend in person. Some highlights at this meeting include:

• Vote on the Sale of North Property to Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans (MACV): We will be voting on a motion to allow the Church Council to negotiate the sale of a portion of our property to MACV for the purpose of development by Lennar Builders for a Veterans’ Village. A draft motion and more details can be found here. We want to remind you that voting members, 18 years and older, are eligible to vote on the sale of this land. You will receive a ballot when you arrive on Sunday. Associate members, per our church’s constitution and bylaws, do not have voting privileges.

• Revealing of the Reconciling in Christ (RIC) Welcoming Statement: Our RIC team has been working hard to build a welcoming statement as part of our process in becoming an RIC congregation through Reconciling Works. Team members include Jeremy Bierlein, Rebecca Gierok, Brian Hornbecker, and Jean Taylor. They are open to any questions or feedback regarding the statement at the luncheon.

Burger and Hotdog Luncheon: Following the meeting, we will have a delicious burger and hotdog luncheon in the Fellowship Hall. It's a great opportunity to enjoy good food and company.

Thank you for being a part of our church community and for your continued support and involvement. We look forward to seeing you Sunday!
