Great Ideas

Thank you so much, Joelle!...FCC, Pittsfield, MI, schedules a Crani-Yum night, a potluck for the purpose of fellowship and fun playing the board game Cranium®…Peoples’, Bayport, MN, is creating “Entering Jerusalem,” turning their basement into a typical middle eastern marketplace. A great way to learn about a different culture…2nd Beloit, WI, is starting a band. Young, old, now play, once-played, available all the time, available periodically, used instruments, no instruments, everyone’s invited…FCC Wayne, MI, Want to know why it is so important to hear about the pain and suffering of Jesus during Holy Week? Write to Rob Joy.
