BAPTISMS, FIRST COMMUNIONS & AN AWESOME MUSICIAN

On Sunday, May 4th, we had a wonderful day at worship that boasted two baptisms, four students receiving their first communion and a guest musician from Minneapolis.

Macy Lynn and Gracie Rose Vinson, daughters of Andrea Vinson and Randy Vinson were baptized. Their baptismal sponsors are their uncle and aunt, Ron and Marsha Vinson. We are delighted to welcome them into the family of God through this holy sacrament.

The first communion students, who had prepared for their big day by taking a class and completing creative projects, are: Megan, Macy and Gracie Vinson and Austin Weipert. What an exciting day to welcome these young people to the Lord's Table!

We also enjoyed the musical stylings of Minneapolis based musician, Jonathan Rundman. A professional songwriter, recording and performing artist, Rundman introduced the congregation to his original liturgies. His music has been featured on the Ellen Degeneres Show, CBS This Morning, and National Public Radio. He has received rave reviews from Billboard, The New York Times, Performing Songwriter, Paste and countless regional publications. Following worship, Rundman played an informal concert.
