1. The church needs help on Saturday, April 13th @8:00 AM to get the wildflower garden spot tilled, add top soil, etc. & hopefully plant. We will meet behind the Halbert Outdoor Chapel and need 6 strong people to help with filling & pushing wheelbarrows.

2. Children's Ministry invites the youth, as always, to help hide eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, 4/20. Meet Micah at the church around 9:30 for this SUPER fun event (and one of our largest outreaches of the year!).

Did you know that Lebanon FUMC lifts up a special Sunday every year to celebrate the gifts of our youth members by inviting us lead what is always a creative, interactive, and engaging service?
Youth-led Sunday is your opportunity to use your voice as you lead the church and share your faith. Youth lead in ALL areas of the service: music, speaking, prayer, hospitality, and more...so we need ALL youth to participate!

And it's only a month away!

Our Class of 2019 Senior Recognition will take place on Sunday, April 28th. Per tradition, we will be recognizing our graduates in a slide show to be played at both the 8:30 & 11:00 AM worship services.

In addition, you and your family are invited to the Lebanon FUMC Senior Banquet on the same day (Sunday, April 28th) from 5:00-7:30 PM in the Fellowship Hall. This will be a time of Celebration, Blessing, & Sending Forth of our Honored Graduates.

We hope you will be able to participate in these special events for/with your students! If so, here’s what we need from you:

• To prepare for the banquet, please write a letter or prepare some words of wisdom/blessing to share, as all families will be invited to speak about/over their students during a Public Blessing portion of the evening.
• Please send your RSVPs (including the number of guests you expect to attend with you) by no later than April 15th to [email protected] or [email protected].
• For your student's picture to be included in the slide show, please submit a copy of a young/baby picture AND a senior/current one either to the church office, or send it digitally to [email protected] or [email protected] (digital files MUST be in JPEG/JPG format at a resolution of 300 dpi or greater). We need to receive these by no later than April 22nd!
