Mission Trip
Ethan and Madison Rausch are headed on another week
long mission trip in June with the United Methodist
Church up the street. This year they will be helping
families whose homes were damaged by the hurricane in
New Jersey along the shore. They are selling "stock" to
help pay for the cost of the trip. If you would like to support them financially, the stock is $10 apiece and gets
you a letter while on the trip as well as the annual ice
cream social and slide show. Checks can be made out to
the North Olmsted United Methodist Church with Rausch
and youth mission on the memo line please. If you have
any questions, please see Ethan, Madison or Susan, or
email at srausch2@hotmail.com. Thank you!

Thank You
Advent’s volunteers out-did yourselves again! Thank you for
the generous portions of food and love. We served about 60
guests (and had food for about 85+) so there was plenty available for 2nd’s and 3rd’s plus some brought containers and took
food home. The Johnny Marzetti recipe that included cream
cheese (or so it seemed) got Blue Ribbon remarks from the
guests – however all guests were their usual gracious and appreciative selves. Almost to a person each guest had a smile
and a big thank you when we served them. You have made a
huge, loving difference in the lives of 60 guests and Metanoia
staff people last Sunday night. Thank you!
Mark your calendars
Please join us Saturday March 23 from 10:00 am to 12:00 p.m.
for egg dying in the Parish Hall. All you need to bring is you
eggs (hard boiled, please!) and a dye kit. We’re certain to
have an “egg-cellent” time!
Coffee, iced tea and children’s drink provided. If you are interested in bringing a snack, please see Nicole Humphrey (email
nicole4jeff@bigfoot.com or call
(440) 427-0601). All ages welcome.
