🍀 EMERALD CROSSING VBS VOLUNTEERS — IMPORTANT REMINDER! 🍀

VBS is just one week away!

If you plan to help with VBS in any way, on any night — even for one evening — please make sure you do TWO things:

☘️ Register as a VBS Volunteer
☘️ Attend our Volunteer Meeting TONIGHT at 6:00 PM

Whether you are helping with teaching, crafts, music, recreation, snacks, nursery, registration, decorating, security, or serving wherever needed — this applies to you! 🐑🌿

Tonight’s meeting is important! We’ll cover schedules, procedures, expectations, and practical guidance — including how to help you confidently share the Gospel and lead a child to Christ if God provides that opportunity during VBS. 📖💚

Thank you for helping us minister to children and families through 3 special nights of Emerald Crossing VBS and our VBS Celebration on May 31! ☘️🐄🌼

HOSTESS FAQ

If I host a table, what will I need?

Hostesses are welcome to decorate their tables however they like, but each table should be set and ready to serve its guests. A tea service is needed for your table, along with enough cups for at least 6 place settings. If your table is not full, additional guests may be assigned to your table.

What if I do not have plates, cups, or silverware for my table?

The church does have clear plastic plates, cups, and silverware available if needed.

How many people can sit at my table?

A table comfortably seats 6, though up to 8 can fit if needed.

Will a tablecloth be provided?

We generally have white tablecloths available to borrow if needed. Tables are 60-inch round tables for anyone who would like to bring their own tablecloth.

Do I provide my own centerpiece?

If you would like to have a centerpiece, yes. Some hostesses use their tea service as the table decoration, while others may use a hat, fresh florals, or silk arrangements.

When can I set up my table?

Set up is available Friday evening from 5:00–7:00 PM and Saturday morning from 10:00 AM–12:00 noon.

Happy New Year, church family! 🤍
🔅2025 Recap Video in comments. 🔅

If you weren’t able to join us for the New Year’s Breakfast yesterday, we wanted to share a glimpse of the joy, fellowship, and truth we experienced together. Gathered around tables with food, conversation, worship, and prayer, we were reminded once again that church is more than a building. It is a family. A body. A people growing together.

Yesterday’s message, “Growing Together Into Christ” (Ephesians 4:11–16), set the tone for the year ahead. We were reminded that growth is not something to fear. It is something to steward. Christ is both the source and the direction of our growth. The goal is not comfort, familiarity, or activity, but Christlikeness. We are called to grow in Him, not alone, but together.

Growth always brings change, but change is not the enemy. It is evidence that Christ is still at work among us. Scripture reminds us that the body grows when every part is connected, when each member matters, and when love is the environment. You don’t belong because you know everyone. You belong because Christ has placed you here.

✨Prayerfully consider the following:

From a biblical perspective, what do these terms mean to you?

GROW

SERVE

IMPACT (Titus 2)

We also took time to look back with gratitude through a 2025 recap video, celebrating what God has done. Lives changed, doors opened, and His faithfulness on display. And we looked forward with hope and prayer as we step into 2026 with a clear vision, growing together into Christ for His glory.

If you missed yesterday, we hope these videos help you feel the joy of the morning. We cannot wait to see how God continues to grow us together in the year ahead. 🤍✨
