VBS Summer 2012!!
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
Vacation Bible School provides an opportunity to not only minister to the children at both Fifth & Plymouth Heights CRC church, but it allows us to reach into the community as well. Last year, over two thirds of the 120 children who participated were non Fifth kids! At Sky VBS, kids imagine what it would be like to bounce among the clouds, soar with eagles, and reach for the stars. Start soaring now - register here to be a part of this Sky VBS! This journey will change kids forever. Each day, children will see how much God loves people by participating in many activities that help their faith flow into real life. If you would like to become a volunteer or donate items click here. If you have any questions, please e-mail Krista Batdorff or call the church office at 245-9247.

Did You know?

Hey friends and family!
We continue to add more features to this new website, and want to make sure you can use it as easily as possible.
One of our newest features is a "search" bar at the top of the website. It might be obvious, but here, you can search
for something you read in another news article, specific sermons, events and so on. As an example, I typed in the
word, "disciple" in the search bar, and here (click) is the result!
More features are coming soon, including a discussion board where you will be able to discuss implications of recent
sermons, submit prayer requests, post event ideas, if you own a business you can put up your services for all of us
to utilize and more!
We are also going to be launching a "Members" log-in page that will co-incide with our new photo directory
(see announcement). Here, you'll be able to create a username and password and find an online version of the new
directory, and even more features!
We are also revamping the sermon media files so you can sync them via Itunes and put them on your Ipod's (or other
mp3 players). If you ever have questions or concerns, please contact our website director, Chad Farrand.
Church Photo Directory 2012

We are beginning the process of updating our photo directory. The times and dates will appear on the front page of
our website. Based on availability of our photographers, we will have times for you to get your pictures taken before
and after worship services. If you'd like to sign up for a time slot, please click the link below.
Blessings to you!

Habitat For Humanity
Monday, April 02, 2012
Habitat for Humanity has created small renovation projects that will be completed in a week or less. Volunteers will perform exterior repairs, painting or landscaping. If swinging a hammer or digging in the dirt doesn’t appeal to you, there will be volunteer opportunities to provide snacks, sending out communication notices and other less messy tasks. Come to an exploratory meeting on Sunday, April 22 after the service and learn more about this community service opportunity.
The meeting will be held in the East Community Room (the room behind the kitchen). Contact John Leegwater 452-2754 or Lori Kane 949-9700 with questions.
What are LIFE Groups?
LIFE Groups meet at various times of the week and although the groups typically get together weekly, most participants attend two or three times per month. You are welcome to attend when you can; no need to be there every week. To give a LIFE Group a try or just learn more, get in touch with Jim at 616-706-4794.
Why LIFE Groups?
We believe that discipleship is a team sport, and LIFE Groups are a primary place for us to “encourage one another on towards love and good deeds” (Heb. 10:24). Diverse groups of 10 to 15 people get together on a regular basis to become more intentional about seeking the Lord and blessing the world. Along the way some wonderful friendships form and authentic spiritual growth happens. You don’t have to come to every meeting and you certainly don’t have to be a ministry rock star. You need only a desire to grow. LIFE groups meet at various times and locations throughout the week. Contact Jim Henderson for more information at 616-245-9247.
