Enjoy your week ahead! Remember your shoes are probably not untied next Saturday! But there will be plenty of great things to be found at our church sale! Maybe donate some stuff and bring your family members to the sale. They might even say that some of the stuff looks familiar to them and buy it back! ;)! You can say “April Fools” and help the church at the same time! ;)!
Live your faith, find humor in life when needed, and do good for others. Remember life and faith are a journey to learn as a person and as a soul. We are also here to love others and serve God. God is also there for us. Try to live this and think about it as we prepare for Palm Sunday next Sunday! Hosanna! God bless and be with you this week! :)!
