Sunday School this week:
Children age three-6th grade meet upstairs with Sabina for a lesson on measuring success and making card crafts.
Adults: Travels in Turkey and Beyond Throughout the last half of 2015, Elder Christopher Jenkins was deployed in the Middle East. Come see his gorgeous photographs and hear his perspective on that part of the world after serving there a second time. 

May 1 After Church: Artifact Day Bring your favorite pictures and other artifacts to prepare to celebrate MPC’s 65th. Come share an MPC memory on film to be presented at the party on Pentecost.

Spring Gardening May 1, noon-2 p.m. Join the Property Committee planting, weeding, and in a variety of other gardening activities. Bring your gloves, clippers, hoes, and trowels and other tools. Yes, lunch is provided! It is fun to get to know each other as we make the grounds more beautiful!

MPC Stewardship Campaign Our campaign is off to a great start - we have 30 pledges so far! If you haven’t turned your card in yet, you can mail it to the office or drop it in the plate. Thank you for helping MPC continue to grow in faith and service!

The Presbyterian Church (USA)’s biannual conference, General Assembly, is coming to Portland June 18-25! Sign up to volunteer and connect with Presbyterians from around the world. Visit gaportland.com for full details. The website has job descriptions, time slots available, and forms - check it out! 

Celebrating MPC’s 65th Anniversary! Mark your calendars for the church’s birthday party following worship May 15th. Enjoy vintage worship (based on early MPC services), a 50s food potluck, and video memories (come May 1 to share your own). Consider bringing a gift for the kids to unwrap at the party.
