Men's Breakfast
Mark your calendars for the next men's breakfast on March 28th, 7–9a with a focus on The Covenant Home: Faithfulness Under Christ. Our home is not just where we live; it is where Christ reigns, disciples are formed, and the gospel is practiced daily. Vic Arata will be speaking on a Recipe for Home Disciples and what that looks like: the Word central, grace visible, and mission active. So come to engage with other men about being a "man on a mission" at home, enjoy good food, and be encouraged by the testimony and fellowship of others.
Please RSVP sooner rather than later! While walk-ins are also welcome, it’s a huge help for leaders to know how much food to prepare and how many tables and chairs to set up.
Attendance is free, but if you’re able, a $3 donation at the door goes a long way to supporting men’s ministry events at Iron Works!

Church Potluck
Summer is often a time when our community rhythms are on hold - a time when Sunday schools and Bible studies are on break, when it’s harder to connect with other families because of vacations and summer camps. Take some time to reconnect with a potluck meal after the service on July 5th. Please sign up to bring a dish (or two) so that we have plenty of food!
Additionally, plenty of help is needed for setting up the meal and cleaning up afterwards. If you can help (even if its just for fifteen minutes!) please contact administrator Annika Griffith.
