After church, please take a moment in the lobby to sign cards with encouragement for staff at Franklin High School so we can bless them as part of our Easter celebration. You can also give toward gift cards for each of them by designating your gift "Bless Franklin Staff": bit.ly/RACgiving. And if you're a parent of a middle school or high school age student, you're invited to a parent meeting in the youth room after church today. Looking forward to see you this morning!

Women, you're invited to a health panel this Sunday! This week's focus is Marital Intimacy: The Beauty & the Barriers Part 2, but even if you missed the earlier panel, you are still welcome to attend! This week, we will discuss the questions submitted so far, and will also reserve the last 30 minutes for brief individual consultations with the therapist and for prayer. Members of the prayer team will be available during this time. This series is meant to give women a chance to understand their bodies better and to explore what might be inhibiting their ability to experience God’s good plan in this area of their lives. As Free Methodists, we are approaching these sessions from a historical Biblical view of singleness and marriage being between a man and a woman. All women, single, married, and teens are welcome! Please RSVP to help plan for lunch, submit questions, and sign up for emails about followup opportunities: bit.ly/3ZOXcZD. Due to lack of interest so far, we will not have childcare available during the panel. You can also contact Aleya Gebhardt with questions or for more information. Hope to see you Sunday! ...
