Reconciling Sunday today at Faith! We will be joined by Matt Lewellyn-Otten from OutFront as a speaker for Faith Forum and in our worship time. Matt is a Religious Organizer and has spent many years in Youth Ministry. He has an MDiv from Boston University School of Theology.

Outreach opportunity: During our Untrim the Tree campaign we helped Emma Norton Services as they were fundraising for their newest housing project for women and families with mental health and chemical dependency needs. Restoring Waters in the Highland Bridge development in St Paul will be opening this April. We have signed up to host the first birthday party in the new building. The party will be on Tuesday April 30 at 1 pm. We will carpool and leave the church at noon. This will be a party for the residents with April birthdays, we are expecting about 15 of them. If you would like to be one of the hosts, we are looking for people to: make cupcakes, bring birthday decorations, help set up and serve, call out bingo numbers, and purchase small bingo prizes. The sign-up sheet is in the Commons.

Love Offering and UMCOR Kits: In May we will be collecting money for the Annual Conference Love Offering and supplies for UMCOR Kits. Each year, churches in the Minnesota Annual Conference take a Love Offering for missions in conjunction with our Annual Conference Session. The theme of the Conference (May 29-30) is, Jesus Redeemer. Our Love Offering this year will help our neighbors—in Minnesota and around the world—heal from trauma and find safety. • Thirty percent of the Love Offering will go to a new trauma care center in Ukraine.
• Thirty percent of the Love Offering will go to immigration legal support in partnership with Volunteer Lawyer Network. • Thirty percent of the Love Offering will go to special programming aimed at reducing trauma at Emma Norton Services’ new Restoring Waters facility.
• Ten percent of the Love Offering each year goes to Volunteers in Mission scholarships, which support first-time mission trip participants. In addition to the Love Offering, congregations can collect supplies and make any kits requested on either the Midwest Mission Distribution Center (MMDC) or United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) websites. Most needed items include 8-10 oz lotion and 2 oz diaper cream (not A & D).
