CHILDREN’S MINISTRY ST. PATRICK’S DAY ICE CREAM SOCIAL for children and their families March 17th 6:30 pm -7:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall. Everyone’s Irish for one day a year, so let’s celebrate the church family and St. Patrick who used the shamrock as a symbol to teach about the trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. When you are green in Jesus, you grow to be more like him! That’s no blarney!
