The Cove Yard Sale Fundraiser

*The yard sale date has been moved back to May 19!

The Cove is planning to hold a yard sale fundraiser! If you were planning on doing some cleaning out of your cluttered closet or garage, don’t throw away anything you find! Instead, please consider donating it to The Cove to sell at the yard sale. As the saying goes: “One person’s trash is another person’s treasure.” (Unless it really is just trash, like old banana peels. It you find something like that in your closet then, please, by all means throw it out!)

If you would like to donate some things to the yard sale, we would encourage you to start dropping those items off at the church now! Either bring them on Sunday or come by the church office during the week. If you have any questions or if you would like to help with the yard sale in a different way, please contact Bekah.

As always, all the funds raised from this event will go toward The Cove’s trip to CHIC this summer and other events and activities for the youth.

Breakfast will be served beginning at 9:00 AM, adult and youth Bible studies begin and 9:30 AM, and then worship begins at 10:45 AM.

David Schultz Celebration

This Sunday, we will be holding a very special cake reception in honor of longtime Village member David Schultz. David has been attending at Village for much of his life; he first started attending during the 1980s. David will be leaving Azusa soon to move to a retirement community in Springfield, Missouri, where he will be closer to his son. Over the past several decades, and the past ten years especially, David has become a veritable pillar of the Village community. We would like to celebrate David’s time as an integral part of the Village family and also wish him well on this new chapter in his life.

We hope you will join us for this special time of reflection and celebration this Sunday immediately following worship in the Fireside Room.

Classes will be held at 9:15 AM in Laurie’s office for three Sundays: February 24, March 3, and March 11.
