March Mites – As of March 20 a check for $158.67 for March Mites has been mailed to the OK District LWML. It was recently noted on a ‘LERT Team’ trailer, that LWML had provided them with a grant for this equipment for their much needed use and our members’ continued generosity in our first Sunday monthly “Mite Sunday” makes this possible for LWML to support the grants by the Oklahoma District.
NAME THAT HOUSE – What would you like our newly acquired house on 5th Street to be named? Any ideas or suggestions? Let us know!! Please write down your idea/suggestion and put it in the ‘chest’ box located on the narthex counter.
ALTAR FLOWERS – If you would like to furnish flowers for the altar, there is a sign-up sheet on the narthex table. Just choose either a ‘special’ Sunday to either honor someone or any Sunday just to provide. Flowers may be either bought or come from your own garden/flower bed. If you would prefer, you can make a donation and we will shop for you. Mark your contribution “Altar Flowers” on your check or envelope.
THE LWML – Collects used eyeglasses, sunglasses & soft cases to be used for MOST Ministries. We also collect stamps, no ordinary or Christmas stamps, but if you receive correspondence with a ‘special’ stamp, please save for LWML. (Please save a ¼” portion around the stamp as they have to be cut down a certain way). There are labeled containers on the top shelf of narthex cabinet (next to bell) for collection of these items. We also collect used printer cartridges—container is located on the floor at the end of the narthex cabinet by the bell. A list of the cartridges that are recyclable is located on top of the cabinet as well. Thank you for all you do to help LWML in all our endeavors.
THE FOOD PANTRY – We always gladly accept any non-perishable food items if you would like to donate anything. If you prefer, you can make a monetary donation, instead, by just marking your monetary donation as “Food Pantry” and put it in one of the offering plates. The Caring Ministry will do the shopping for you! We would like to thank everyone who have given this month in food and/or money. Also a grateful thank you to those who volunteer to pack the food bags each month.
Youth News
Volunteering – We have planned time to volunteer at the Veterans Center on Saturday April 25th. Times are TBD. After our volunteer time we will go to La Michoacana Ice Cream shop for some treats (located in mall next to Taco Bell). They have really good ice cream and we can support a local family business. More details coming soon.
Looking Ahead to May:
Disc Golf – Join us on Saturday May 2nd for a fun afternoon of fellowship. We will meet at the church at 11:00 am for a Taco lunch and a Bible study. We will then carpool to Claremore lake for disc golf. Pick up time from church is 3:00 pm. Hopeful for beautiful weather this day.
For more information about all youth activities, please contact Michelle or Carolyn for more information.
LWML News
The Redeemer LWML ladies met on March 19, 2026 to discuss business, enjoy a guest speaker from the Child Advocacy Center, and a Bible study led by Roz Burger. We meet each month on the third Thursday at 9:30 in the church library. We would encourage other members to come and join us.
The Oklahoma District Convention will be held on April 17 & 18 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Edmond, OK. Pastor Ryan will be attending as the Oklahoma District Junior Counselor. Eileen Husting & Dorothy Gilbreath will be attending as delegates and will be voting on officers for the upcoming biennial 2026-2027. Also, we will be voting on proposed mission grants with a goal of $148,500. These grants will help many people during the next two years.
We sincerely appreciate the support we receive from our church members. We could not possibly do all that we do without your help.
We are currently organizing a committee of volunteers to help members of our congregation with meals. If you would be interested in helping with preparing meals; if you have a need for a meal or if you would like more information regarding this service, please contact Dorothy Gilbreath.
