April 21: Father/Son Pinewood Derby
On Saturday, April 21 at 2:00 p.m. CTW will be hosting a pinewood derby at the Dominguez barn. Pinewood kits are available in the Narthex, and we ask that sons (not fathers) do most of the work on the cars. Of course, fathers will need to do some of the trickier work, but we hope each of the cars will have been mostly built by our young men. If you have friends or family members you believe would like to participate, feel free to invite them. More information will be coming soon. If you need a kit, please contact Steve Altman.

Living Word Youth Flower Sale
Get your mulch and flowers! It’s the annual Living Word Youth flower sale. Flyers are available in the narthex for Andersons, Hoens, and Vogt’s Greenhouses. See a teen or leader of your choosing for details!

Volunteer to Write About a CTW Missionary
A good way to learn about a CTW missionary is to read about them, but a great way to get to know them is to contact them yourself and learn first hand from them about their experiences in the mission field and beyond. Then if you want to share what you have discovered with others you are greatly encouraged to write about them. This would enable everyone to know the CTW missionaries better. If you would like more information or this is of interest to you please contact Scott Killy or Michelle Holder.
