Greetings-

 There are three really important things we want to tell you about:

• First, on May 14 we are having our end of the year BBQ celebration during programs from 6:30-8:00pm.  What we are also doing is throwing a SURPRISE baby shower for Christina and Andy Ziem (baby boy due in August)!  Please consider being part of this great event.  They are going to register at Target, but gift cards are always great.  Also we need volunteers to donate supplies such as decorations, plates, silverware, napkins etc, nothing fancy.  We will have a cake and Burgers and Dogs with the necessary fixings. Christina and Andy are two of our best volunteers and Chirstia was on staff with the student ministry as well.  Please drop by to say hi and support them.  If you can help, make donations, or have questions, please contact Marcus directly at marcus@sunrisestudents.org.
• Just a reminder that Marcus' last day is May 18.  There is a party on Saturday May 17 at 7pm in the Cafe at the Woodmen Campus.  Marcus will be out of the office May 12-16.

• Attention Parents and Mission Trip Participants!!

   Our next mission team meeting is on Sunday May 4.  We are asking parents to join us for the first part of this meeting!   We will cover the packing list, the itineraries, hand out financial sheets and answer any questions about the mission trips that parents or students might have especially in light of the transition.  This will also give parents an opportunity to meet trip leaders if you have not already done so!  The meeting starts at 2:00pm in the Chapel at the Woodmen Campus on Sunday May 4!
