‍_{🎙 WHAT’S UP AT FRC TODAY}

Welcome to FRC’s 175th Anniversary Celebration! We’re so glad you’re here for this special day of worship and celebration as we thank God for His faithfulness through the generations. God is so good! A few quick notes to help the day go smoothly:

• 🎶 Sing it out! Join in with joy—many who can’t be here in person are worshiping with us via livestream and Channel 14 (live at 10 AM, rebroadcast at 11:30 AM). Let’s help them feel the celebration from wherever they are!
• 🍽️ After worship, stick around for food, fellowship, and fun with nearly 500 friendly faces. We may not have airline-grade logistics, but we will be giving some friendly priority exit instructions at the end of the service to help keep things moving and avoid bottlenecks. 
• ✏️If you pre-registered for the event, check the purple insert in this week’s bulletin for your assigned table—your place to call home and store your belongings. If you didn’t pre-register, no worries, tables with open seating are available.
• 🎉 This celebration is all about casual fun—no prescribed schedule, no need for everyone to eat at once. Whether the kids pull you to the bounce houses first, you start with coffee and conversation, or worship works up your appetite, enjoy the day your way. It’s all about connection and celebration!
• 🧦 Socks = Required for Bouncy House Bliss! If your kiddo showed up in sandals or mysteriously lost a sock on the way (it happens), swing by the Kids Activity Center—we’ve got backup pairs ready to save the day!
• 🖼️ Don’t miss our new Gallery Wall (on your way to the Fellowship Hall). Prepare for lots of “Remember when…” moments!
• ✝️ Let’s celebrate big—and praise God for all He’s done!

🍦🗞️SUNDAY SCOOP

VBS kicks off just two weeks from tomorrow! 🎉 We’re down to needing just ONE more adult volunteer—someone to help guide our awesome 3-year-olds through their afternoon. No teaching involved—just keep them moving (snacks, crafts, story time—you get the idea)! 😄🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ If you can jump in, contact Lori or email her at ltaylor@frcoostburg.org. Let’s fill that last spot! 💪

VBS Volunteers – we’re so pumped for VBS, we couldn’t wait to see you! So we’re gathering all our amazing volunteers this Wed., June 4 at 6:30 PM for a quick prep party (aka a meeting, but “party” sounds more fun). 😄 Mark your calendars—we’ll go over the details and answer questions. Let the countdown begin! 🚀✂️📚

🍪 Coffee & Cookies (July–October).  It’s time to refresh the after-church serving schedule—and if you haven’t tried this volunteer opportunity yet, now’s your chance! It’s fun, low-stress, and an easy way to be a friendly face at FRC. Plus, handing out cookies? Instant popularity. To sign up, contact Joan Dykstra at opadykstra@wi.rr.com.  If you've helped before, you'll be included in the new schedule unless you let Joan know otherwise. Big thanks to our faithful Cookie Donors—you make sweet things happen!

Many thanks to all who came out for last week’s Spring Clean-Up (pictured left). What a fun day of service! One recipient says “thank you so much to the work crew that put down mulch around my house. It looks great! Bless you all! -Carol R. 

Pastor’s Bob and Brian will be a bit “remote” this week as they both attend the General Synod of the RCA as delegates for the WI Classis. Please pray for this gathering of church leaders as well.
