Missions News
Several from our association went to Glendive, Montana last summer on a mission trip to help David & Cheryl Stahlman who are planting the Hopebridge Church there. We helped with cleaning, construction projects, prayer walking throughout the community, provided nightly VBS and a block party. They periodically send us updates on how things are going, and since we left, they have held weekly Bible studies with a meal on Sunday evenings. We were very happy to hear that on Easter Sunday, they held a preview Church Service with breakfast and had 15 in attendance. Praise the Lord!! Please keep Hopebridge Church, The Stahlman Family and this community in your prayers.

A Music Note by Mike Kitch
Greetings beloved! Our April hymn sing at Ten Mile was the usual wonderful gathering of Christians glorifying our triune God with music. The last performance was especially appreciated, as the Community Choir put together by the Lewistown church presented two songs from their upcoming event. Which I highly recommend everyone attend. The bass section is uplifted with several volunteers from Heartland. Their presentation of ‘Hosannas and Hallelujahs’ will be April 26 in Lewistown at 5 pm. Our May 12th hymn sing is at Providence. Come join the assembling!
Hands In Service Sewing Group
We will be meeting at Durham on May 21 from 1-5 pm to sew eyeglass cases for Vision 3:16. Come when you can. Watch for flannel on sale – we are running low!
And if anyone has preemie or newborn size items for the Mama Tulia Ministry in Uganda, the items need to be given to Kimbre Thrower by the end of June! Cloth diapers in newborn size are greatly appreciated! Contact Violet or Evelyn Scifres for more information about sewing diapers.
They would also like crochet hooks in size H, I, J.
And they could use money to buy newborn vitamins, yarn, and meals.
May we keep our Hands In Service for HIM because we are HIS!
