It is with grateful hearts that we invite the congregation to the wedding ceremony
of Eunike Indrawan and Tim Bentson on Saturday, April 15th, at 5pm at Faith
Presbyterian Church. As much as we would love to invite everyone to the
reception, our venue has limited space. Therefore, the reception is by invitation
only. Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to seeing you all at the
wedding ceremony.

A shower is planned for Eunike on Tuesday, April 4th at 7:00 pm in the Fellowship House. Tim and Eunike are planning to move to Osaka, Japan in a year, so they ask that you not give any physical gifts. You can view the registry on their wedding website to see what would help them financially: https://withjoy.com/tim-and-eunike/welcome. You may also contribute to the group gift for a keyboard for Eunike to use while they are in Tacoma. The box for contributions is available in the narthex today and next Lord’s Day.

The second Saturday of April is almost upon us! That means that we'll be serving at the Tacoma Rescue Mission the day before Easter. We need a total of 200 servings of dessert each time (2 cookies per serving). You may put them in the kitchen freezer and mark them with Tacoma Rescue Mission or TRM by noon on Saturday, April 8. Also, please let Sandy Milton know, via email (samilton1000@gmail.com), what you're providing and how many so that she can plan accordingly. If you're hoping to help us serve, please let Sandy know that as well. Thank you for sharing in "giving food to the hungry and drink to the thirsty." (Matthew 25: 34-35).

Our Trail Life troop is in need of a Troopmaster. Responsibilities include coordination of the Trail Life program, volunteer management, and liaison to the larger Trail Life organization. This is a wonderful opportunity to work with and mentor young men from our congregation (and others in the area). If you have interest in serving in this role, even on a temporary basis, please contact Jeff Bone or Nate Carlson.

With the New Year, we are updating the master list of volunteers that help with nursery. You must be a woman aged 18 years or older to help. If you are currently a volunteer or are considering volunteering, please go to this link and sign up: https://tinyurl.com/FPC-Nursery-Signup. Remember, many hands make light work. If you have any questions or need help signing up, please contact Rachel Moore.

If you are looking for a way to plug in and take ownership of your church but are hesitant to take on something daunting, we are looking for volunteers like you! We currently have volunteer slots open for greeter, sanctuary reset, and sound tech, with more on the way. Please click the link here, or talk to Evan Kvale, either in person or through email at ekvale@faithtacoma.org. Feel free to reach out with any questions or input!

The church is looking to hire a nursery attendant to minister to our covenant children during the 11:00 service. Applicants should be at least 18 years old, have experience with childcare, be able to follow safety and security policies and procedures, and should be regularly attending the alternate morning service. (We do not wish for this position to hinder someone from regular Sunday morning worship!). Please contact the church office if you are interested in applying.

We are making sandwiches here at Faith each week on Thursday mornings at 9:30‐11:45 in DeSoto Hall. Please come and join us if you are able!

We serve a meal at the Tacoma Rescue Mission on the second Saturday of each month. Look for a bulletin announcement with details two weeks ahead of our turn to serve in the following month. If you are hoping to help us serve, please contact Sandy Milton (samilton1000@gmail.com), as you will need to complete a little paperwork a few days prior to your first time serving at the Mission.
