5.    We are incredibly excited to be partnering with Regent College in starting up our new ministry – Newbern Academy! As a part of the promotional process, Sheldon will be leading a team of volunteers next week (April 9) after church to pass out some fliers in the neighbourhood and get a general survey of interest in our area. A delicious pizza lunch will also be provided for volunteers. Please join us as we attempt to reach out to our neighbours! For more questions, please contact Sheldon.

6.    Save the Date! On May Long Weekend (May 19-21) Newbern KidsMin is having a weekend VBS! Join us for a fun filled time as we go on a Mission: Deep Sea. Stay tuned for more details about our joint adventure with The Rainbow Garden and a youth sleep over! Contact Ps. Monique for more details and volunteer opportunities.

7.    Mission Department Report clarification: The mission work of Pastor Isaac and Mable has been self-funded all along, except for the financial support from CCM when serving with CCM. The church highly values their mission work as Newbern’s Volunteer Consulting Pastor couple, and supports them in non-financial ways.
