Spring is Here!

Dear Friend of InFaith: Northwest Oregon,

InFaith Northwest US Field Director Nathan Bath is back in town.  Nathan is in the middle of a ten-day tour, visiting a number of InFaith missionaries and field staff in Idaho, Washington and Oregon.  He will be joining those of us at the Sandy Fellowship Breakfast, tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9 AM at Tollgate Inn in Sandy.  Nathan also plans to join us for the Sunday School Fellowship Annual Business Meeting this coming Saturday, March 23 at 10 AM at Woodland Park Chapel in Portland.

Also at that SSF meeting, we will be presenting the 2024 Bryce O Bartruff Servant Leader Award.  This year it is being awarded posthumously to Pastor Mark Helmberger, who passed away in 2022 after co-shepherding Woodland Park Chapel in its first several years of recent renewal.  Mark’s wife Lisa will be on hand at the meeting to join in the tribute and accept the plaque on Mark’s behalf. 

Sunday School Fellowship
Annual Business Meeting

Saturday, March 23, 10 AM

Woodland Park Chapel

1914 NE 102nd Ave, Portland

 

Each Sunday School Fellowship member church (which includes most of you reading this memo) is entitled to have two voting delegates at the meeting, and as many visitors as you like.  The annual meeting gives us a chance to rejoice and reflect on SSF’s support for the InFaith mission in our area, catch up on ongoing work of the Fellowship, and elect new board members to lead the organization for the next year.

 

Resurrection Celebrations are ready to go at all of our InFaith: Northwest Oregon fellowship churches.  Resurrection Sunday is March 31.  If you don’t yet know where you will be celebrating new life through Jesus Christ check out the map and listings of InFaith fellowship Churches near you, found at www.nworinfaith.org.  On the home page there, click on “Find A Fellowship Church.”

 

Coming Up Next Week:

  • NWxNW Ministry Leaders’ Fellowship, Tuesday March 26th, 3-5 PM at Columbia Bible Church in Rainier, OR

 May the coming of Spring remind you always of our new life in Jesus and His promised return.
