Lets Celebrate Don! ❤️

On May 31st, between services, join us in Fellowship Hall as we will take time to gather and celebrate Don as he concludes his season of ministry with us and steps into the next chapter God has for him. We are so grateful for the ways he has poured into our youth, our students, and the life of Wayne Street Church.

Don has made a lasting impact through his care, leadership, and steady presence, and we want to honor that together as a church family.

💌We will be having a card shower in his honor, and we invite you to join us by writing a note of encouragement, gratitude, or blessing. Cards can be:
• brought on May 31st
• dropped off or mailed to the church office: 130 North Wayne Street, St.Marys OH 45885
• or placed in the offering prior to May 31st

Let’s come together to surround Don with love, appreciation, and prayer as we thank God for his time with us and bless him for what’s ahead.

Yesterday, we wrapped up our journey through the book of Ezekiel with the powerful story of the Valley of Dry Bones in Ezekiel 37.

What a reminder that God brings life to places that seem beyond hope. Through His power and breath, generations of shame, silence, and brokenness were overcome in an instant.

As you go through this week, don’t be too quick to answer “no” when life asks, “Can this live?” Leave room for what only God can do.

Praying you walk in the strength, hope, and life found in Jesus this week. 🙏
