Easter Breakfast & Egg Hunt 3/31/24

Hugs and jelly bean kisses to all those who donated money or candy to our annual Easter Egg Hunt. A special shout out to the Easter Bunny, our own Aaron Thornton. This year, we invited the entire congregation to our Easter breakfast. Thanks to all those who made or brought food.

Every bunny enjoyed the yummy breakfast. We appreciate all the help with making the Egg Hunt go smoothly. The children enjoyed searching for candy filled eggs.

Gertrude Simmons Memorial Soup & Sandwich Lunch

Thursday, March 21, 2024 was our Gertrude Simmons Memorial Soup & Sandwich Lunch. Gertrude originated the idea back in 2013. PWOL sponsored the event every year until COVID arrived. The Christian Education Ministry decided to revive the lunch to honor Gertrude, who passed in 2023. The goal has always been to thank and to give back to the Oak Lane community. Nearby churches, Elwood School, the library, firefighters, police, Tree Tenders, and Laurel Square Rehab were invited.

Wonderful homemade soups and a variety of breads, meats, and cheeses were available to build your own sandwich. Gertrude’s daughter, Linda came to help serve. Theresa’s National Association of University Women (NAUW) did a fabulous job with the set-up and serving. It was wonderful to be able to chat and chew with our fellow community members.
