Summer Camping Informational Meeting
For 60 years, Krislund Camp and Retreat Center, has provided young people an opportunity to Encounter God, Build Relationships, and Experience Creation during the summer months. Krislund, as folks like to refer to it, also carries out the above mission during the Spring and Fall retreat calendar. On Sunday, March 5, after worship, beginning at 11:30 AM, you are invited to hear about what Krislund has been doing and will be doing this summer. All are welcome.
In our congregation are former campers, parents, and grandparents who have personally experienced the joy and spiritual growth when attending “church camp.” Our desire is to make it possible for current Pine Streeters to attend camp by providing information on the summer camping experience. The current Camp Director, Joshua Boyd, will be here in person to talk about summer camp opportunities. If you have any questions about Krislund, please contact Marty Gruver. He will be more than happy to talk with you about camp.

This Sunday is your last chance to sign up for our annual Lenten breakfast, which will be held on Sunday, February 26, at 8:45 am in Fellowship Hall. There is a signup sheet at the welcome desk.
