THIS WEEK AT CELEBRATION

UPDATES 
With all that is going on around us in the last week, We are working hard every day to make sure that the calendar of events on the main web site is up to date.  I have been in contact with most of the group leaders to see if their events are going to continue.  Pastor Matt is in communication with the council.  We are working hard to make sure that we keep everyone up on what is happening here and to make sure we are following what the CDC is recommending.  If you have any questions, please contact Pastor Matt or Mindy and we will try and answer them.

COMMUNITY CARNIVAL-MARK YOUR CALENDARS
The date has been set for Saturday, May 16th, from 1-4 PM.  Julie will be getting a sign-up sheet for donations and for volunteers soon.  This is one of our big community outreach events, so please find it in your heart to help with donations/helping out.

WORSHIP AND ARTS
Rehearsals have been canceled for this week and next.

FOOD TRUCK
We are looking for volunteers to help with a food truck.  The need is great in Muskegon County, and we are looking to fulfill one of our mission statements “Serving those we meet” (Matthew 25:17-30.)  Anyone that is interested, please contact Paul Pluger or there is a sign-up sheet at the information booth.

NEW SMALL GROUPS ARE FORMING
We are at the time of year where we are looking to form new small groups.  If you are interested, contact Brenda Swanson, or Pastor Matt know.  We are looking at one on  Tuesday nights and one on Wednesday nights.

COUNCIL
It is that time of year again when we have elders and deacons that have fulfilled their time of service.  We are in need of three people.  If you are willing to fulfill either position, or you know of someone that you thing would be an asset to one of them, please let Paul Pluger know.
