There will be a Relay for Life fundraiser walk on May 19th. Please contact Florence Showalter if you are interested in sponsoring her with a donation.

Recent shipments of relief kits to Syrian refugees in Jordan have depleted the supply that Mennonite Central Committee keeps in reserve; please help them restock to be able to act quickly in a crisis or disaster. To see how to assemble relief kits please visit mcc.org/kits/relief. Also, your gifts of money are urgently needed to respond to the crisis in the region, along with your prayers for peace.

Please Prayer For:

11 John 3:14, “We know that we have passed from death to life,
because we love each other.
Anyone who does not love remains in death.”


Thank you for joining us in worship today.  If this is your first time at Staunton Mennonite,
