New Member Recommendations  Larry White, Eddie Schantz and Jacob & Kathryn Steigman have all completed new member classes as outlined in the PVMC constitution. The elders recommend all of them for membership and anticipate bringing Eddie Schantz into the membership on May 3rd and Jacob & Kathryn Steigman on June 14th, with Kathryn planning to be baptized at Church in the Canyon, June 21st. Larry White is currently in Louisiana with his mother who is battling cancer. Upon his return, we will schedule a date to bring him into the membership.

Answers to Questions Earlier this spring, the elders created an affiliation survey. Part of the survey included a place to ask questions about the Fellowship of Evangelical Churches (FEC) and LMC, a fellowship of Anabaptist Churches. Answers to the questions will be available in the literature rack next Sunday, May 3rd. Look for the yellow paper.

Singing Evening is next Sunday, May 3rd. Jake & Linda Carman, Tony & Becky Peachy, Chris & Jessica Kimble and Jeff & Dana Selzer are responsible for specials. If you prefer not to organize a special for the month, or have a conflict, please contact Luke Knisely.

Substitute Teacher Needed: Youth Sunday School! Do you love engaging with teenagers and sharing the gospel? We are looking for a willing heart to step in and teach our youth for a  summer session late May through July. For more information, please contact a member of the Christian Education Committee (CEC): Cindy Hunt, Susan Shantz, Echo Shantz, Karl  Stutzman and Martha Miller.

Wedding Shower Please join us in celebrating the upcoming marriage of Erika Stutzman and Ryan Minden as we shower them with gifts and love on Sunday, May 31st. If you would like to help host, please contact Jordan Nel. The couple are registered at Target and Amazon.

God’s Love is Extreme! Vacation Bible School is planned for July 13th – 16th. If you would like to volunteer, please contact a member of the VBS Committee: Ally Chupp, Angel  Miller or Dana Selzer. We have opportunities for everyone!

Do You Enjoy Bible Stories and Playtime? Great news! PVMC’s youngest  attenders do too! Check out the Toddler Time sign-up sheet posted to the bulletin board in the foyer to volunteer. 2 adults are needed each Sunday morning during a portion of the worship service. Reach out to a member of CEC to find out more information: Cindy Hunt, Susan Shantz, Echo Shantz, Karl Stutzman and Martha Miller.

Day in the Country In the past this has been a good community and fund raising event. We did not have Day in the Country last year and want to see if there is someone who would like to spearhead a Day in the Country this year. If this is something God is calling you to or if you would like more information about what is involved, please contact the church office.
