LOCAL ANNOUNCEMENTS:
We would like to extend a big thank you to Nate and Brittany Zeltwanger and their committee for hosting the marriage conference this weekend. Other couples were Robert and Melissa Rokey, Dan and Kayla Wiegand, Rhonda and Loren Zeltwanger, Emily and Nate Sauder, Curt and Larissa Wettstein, and Ross and Kitty Hermann.
We would like to update the church on our building exploration process. We have established a building exploration committee and provided them with the feedback from our church survey and discussions. They have met several times now and are exploring three basic paths: Option #1 - Updates – Upgrades to interior of church with possible minor exterior/addition work Option #2 - Major update – Upgrades to interior of church with addition(s) Option #3 - Potential new build. Next steps will involve budgeting and putting together ideas on rough order of magnitude costs for each of these options. Once direction has been prayed about and approved, we will develop committees to work on different areas/aspects of the direction we pursue. All items are being reviewed and discussed to provide the church with options to move forward or remain as we are currently. The good news is that we don’t have to do anything, however, the last time a major remodel was done has been over 50 years ago! If anyone has questions, let any of us on the committee know and we will discuss them as a group. The committee specifically is asking for prayers for God to direct us and the church on how to move forward. We understand we are stewards of what God has given us, and our main goal as a church is to provide teaching, community, and discipleship to show the love of Jesus to the world!

Our 2026/2027 Sunday School and Trustee ballot will go out via email this week. The format looks a little different this year and will hopefully make it easier to vote and determine the results. You will also notice an opportunity to vote between 2 brothers for assistant superintendent and a confirmation vote for Bro. Derek Roth for our next treasurer. We would appreciate everyone praying for guidance from the Holy Spirit and filling out the ballot by Friday, March 6th.
