FRC NEWS

HEADLINE NEWS

BEE THERE FOR THE FINALE! Wednesday, April 15 Sign up today (deadline is 2:30 PM Sunday) We’re wrapping up Wednesday Night Family Meals—and this is the last one until fall, so let’s make it buzz-worthy. Dinner starts at 5:00 PM—try to fly in before 6:00 PM… you’ll be glad you did. After dinner, stick around for simple, all-ages fun—yes, including honey slime (because where else is that happening?) Adults—this night’s for you too. Good food, good conversation, plus a little cornhole, BINGO, and maybe even a sweet prize or two. Nothing fancy. No pressure. Just a really good night to be together. Don’t wing it—make a plan to bee there.

Coming Soon - Oma’s on Sunday - 05.03.26 - Proceeds: Uth Micaragua Trip

LOCAL NEWS

GOOD NEWS (and a FREE DINNER?!) Tue., April 21 | 6:00 PM | Blue Harbor Conference Center. Here’s a night that feeds both your stomach and your soul. Our mission partner, Good News Global (formerly Good News Jail & Prison Ministry), is hosting a fundraising banquet—and you’re invited. This ministry is doing powerful work right in our backyard, supporting individuals at the Sheboygan County Detention Center with hope, encouragement, and yes… good news that truly changes lives.

Not sure what to expect? Come and see. You’ll hear stories, learn more about the impact, and maybe walk away inspired in ways you didn’t see coming.

Bonus: our very own Jason Stewart will be the emcee—so you know it’ll be a good time (no pressure, Jason… but we’re expecting at least one solid joke!)

And did we mention? Dinner is free. Yep. Free. As in—you don’t even have to do the awkward “reach for your wallet” move. Although it IS a fundraiser so bringing your wallet and considering a donation seems like a good gesture!

Click HERE to RSVP or input gnglobal.org/event/sheboygan into your internet browser.

Get Your Voice in the Conversation Sign up HERE or at the Welcome Center (space per session is limited): We’ve got some important conversations coming up about our denominational direction, and these gatherings are designed to be a place to listen, learn, and share your perspective.

Choose one session to attend (sign-up is required):

• Sunday, April 19 | 4:00–5:30 PM

• Wednesday, April 22 | 6:30–8:00 PM

• Sunday, May 3 | 10:15–11:45 AM

These are opportunities to hear where things stand, what’s being discussed, and to offer your feedback before any recommendation comes forward from Consistory.  

NEWS BRIEFS

Did You Know: The annual US Postal Food Drive (always Mother’s Day weekend) is coming up and FRC’s Food Vault is the recipient of all they collect? You heard it here first...

Last week’s offering totaled $24,340.

The March/April Special Offering total, thru 5 weeks is $3,273. As a reminder the March/April special offering is for Kyle & Jayne Wenig and the FRC Youth Missions trip to Nicaragua.

Attendence was 437 last week

Piano Retirement Announcement The grand piano in the fellowship hall has come to the end of its life. It lived a good one. It survived a fire… and later a creative (and apparently successful) restoration effort by Don Draayers and team involving steel wool and mayonnaise to remove water stains. Who knew? Consider that your household tip of the year. At this point, the piano is officially ready for retirement. The keys stick, and a few notes tend to linger well past their welcome—making “staying on pitch” more of a challenge than a guarantee.

If anyone would like a new restoration project, the piano is free for the taking—just the cost of hauling it away. Please contact the church office if interested.

Sing Praise Concert - sponsored by Pine Haven Men’s Chorus. Sunday, May 3rd at 6 PM First Reformed Church, Oostburg.

Pray For

Pray for those in the midst of ongoing cancer treatments: Terri Mentink, Mary Rauwerdink, Craig Mentink and Sue Hartmann.

Lift up those still hospitalized and those discharged but recovering at home: Wendell Hoffmann, Don Teunissen and Harold Veldboom. Keep those prayers coming for Henry DeBlaey’s ongoing medical situation (including wisdom and peace for his Mom and Dad). And pray for those in the active military including Maatilor Josiah and Abe Swart.

Our missions partner this week is Samaritan’s Hand in Sheboygan. Here are a few ways to support them this week:

  • As the April 16 Gala approaches, ask for a meaningful evening and for protection over the speakers and staff.
  • Keep the Board in mind as they make decisions and guide the mission forward.
  • Remember Kully in his leadership—and his wife as she comes alongside him.
  • Ask that Samaritan’s Hand continues to grow and connect with new people.
