National Nursing Home Week this year is May 11-15th. The theme is Americana in celebration of our nation’s 250th birthday. During this week, the Eureka AC Home always has special activities and treats for the residents and staff. They are requesting Apple Pies from their sponsoring Churches to serve. Nothing says America like apple pie! 😊 They are asking each Church to provide 7 apple pies that do not have to be refrigerated. This will be a wonderful treat for our residents and staff! They plan to serve the pies on Thursday May 14th. If pies could be dropped off at the Eureka AC Home West Entrance some time the day before, on Wednesday May 13th, that would be great! Please sign up here if you are willing to bring a pie. Contact Sis. Roxy Blunier with any questions. Thank you!
2026 church directories are available at the message center. Feel free to take as many as you want. Also, the kitchen committee food groups have been updated and can be found in the back of the church directories as well as hanging at the message center. If you were already in a group, your group number has not changed. If there are any questions, please contact Sis. Roxy Blunier.
As students go through high school, it is hard to know what they want to do after graduation. Our church family has so many God given talents, resources, and so much to offer. We put together a "virtual job fair" so our church family can share about their jobs and then we will give the information to the high school students so they can get ideas and know who to reach out to with questions about jobs. The form has contact information so this another chance to build relationships as the high schoolers reach out to people with questions about jobs. The more people that fill out the form, the more jobs the students can learn about so we would appreciate anyone who would fill out the information. It may look long, but you do not need to fill out all the questions. If you feel questions don't apply, or you answered them elsewhere, these are just a guideline. You don't have to answer them all. If you are retired, you can pick a job you had during your career to fill the form out about. If you have any questions, please reach out to Bro. Nate or Sis. Emily Sauder. We appreciate your time and thank you for completing the form by 04/25/2026. Click-here to complete the "Virtual Job Fair" form. Thank you!
Gas cards.
Gas prices are going up and people dealing with getting to work and feeding a family are going to feel the pinch of these rising costs. The gift of a gas card can free up funds in their monthly budget.
Just contact Sis. Dawn Maloney preferably by text at 309-472-6067.
She does not need to know the story or “Why” you think they could use a financial boost. Your judgement or “take” on their situation is all we need.
Send name and mailing address please.
