 *Great Thanks for the united effort of this community in "Picking It Up" last Sunday.  Let us continue to make every effort to get to know, care for, and invest in our neighborhood.

*Praise Be to God!  We celebrate and give thanks for the amazing turn out and generous participation of so many at Saturday's Kumi Benefit Ride/Walk II.  At last count, we raised $38.858 towards our goal of $40,000!  God is good!

*Where in the World Are Our Pilgrims?  Today, our pilgrims will be visiting the deeply divided city of Hebron and having their first moment of free time.  Please continue to remember them on their journey.  They return Friday, May 12th.  Pilgrims will share informally during the Sunday School hour next Sunday, May 14th.
