March 17 @ 9:45am: Easter Egg Hunt


On Sunday, March 17 from 9:45am to 10:45am Faith will be hosting it's annual Easter Egg Hunt!


During this time, kids and their families will meet to search for some eggs outside and then have some time to play games and do crafts to help us prepare for Easter! We'll start with our Easter Egg Search on the lawn (weather permitting) and then move to Luther Hall for the stations; if it isn't great weather, we'll search for eggs inside.


This is a fun time for families of all ages to get together and prepare for the Resurrection!


To help with the event, please consider donating candy or egg stuffers. Bring these items to church by March 10!

March 24 @ 9:45am - The Way of the Cross for Families


Join us for an interactive exploration of one of the most important & difficult stories of our faith: Jesus’ journey to the cross. All five senses will be engaged as we tell this story in a kid-friendly way for our youngest disciples. Families will leave having experienced Holy Week in a new way, and will take home items to remember the journey. This event will be Sunday, March 24 from 9:45-10:45. We will meet in the sanctuary.
