The Apostolic Christian Village would like to welcome our church family and our community to a final open house at Aspen Square, our recently finished Assisted Living building, today from 2 to 4 PM. We are very excited to showcase our new space and hope that it will be useful for many years to come as we work to impact our community for God's Kingdom. We appreciate the overwhelming support we've seen throughout this project and look forward to seeing you there.

The friends singing for tomorrow evening will be held at Bro. Rod & Sis. Jill Steiner's home at 7:30 PM.

The wedding singing for Bro. Evan Fehr and Sis. Maddie Baltic is scheduled for this coming Saturday at 7:00 PM here at the Church. All are welcome. 

The Canaan Church will be serving communion this coming Saturday at 7:30 PM. Brothers and sisters that missed the Rittman service are welcome to attend at Canaan. 

The Eastern Region Elder Meeting is this coming Friday in Mansfield. The minister forum follows on Saturday.  We ask for your prayers. 

Our annual collection in Rittman for Apostolic Christian Counseling and Family Services (ACCFS) is scheduled for the next two Sundays, May 4 and 11. Apostolic Christian Counseling and Family Services (ACCFS) continues to provide counseling and teaching services. Most of the counseling clients pay on a sliding fee scale based on their ability to pay, and your contributions help make up the difference. Many of the services are provided to the brotherhood at no charge and your contributions fund those services as well. 

For our Rittman Church, the Silver Lining Subscriptions are due in May. The suggested donation is $25.00, which we would ask you to put in the general fund box. 

Anyone wishing to host a Monday Night singing for the students should contact Bro. Dale or Sis. Beth Pelfrey.  

This is a reminder announcement about the Funeral Service Pre-planning Form that is available for those brothers, sisters, or friends who desire to pre-plan their funeral. This form is available for gathering information about funeral arrangements, the Church service, and selected hymns. This form is separate from funeral planning that is done directly with the funeral home. If you desire a form or have any questions, please contact Bro. Dan Saurer, Bro. Vern Lanz, or Bro. Jerry Bauman. 

The Golden Giving Benefit is scheduled for Friday, May 30 at the Rittman Fellowship Hall from 4 – 9 PM. Click here for more details.

A major wind and hailstorm has caused the need for a new roof on the Apostolic Christian Retirement Village in Sabetha, Kansas. After much prayer and consideration, God has directed us to use volunteer labor to replace the roof on the whole facility. It will require 11 semi loads of shingles and many hours of volunteer labor. Lord willing, the “Rooftop Revival” project will begin Sunday evening May 25. The projected duration of the project is 5-7 weeks. This project will be patterned after the Winter Rebuilding ministry. Please use the Sign-up Genius link below to inform us of your plans so the local congregations (Bern and Sabetha) can make preparation. Meals and accommodations will be provided, but we need all volunteers individually to respond via Sign-up Genius. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/RRNational

Smithville’s monthly singing for this evening will be held at the Fellowship Hall at 7:00 PM. All are welcome.
