The Sheyenne-Oberon Area Ministries will present The Weeping Tree, a Holy Week Cantata on Palm Sunday, March 16. This will be held at the First Lutheran Church in Sheyenne at 3:00 pm. There will be around 30 wonderful voices performing this beautiful piece of music. The narrators will be Lynn Erickson and Connie Soderholm. Maryellen Rue is our faithful and dedicated pianist, production manager is Paula Myhre, and Eunice Throlson is  our talented director.  Lunch will be served following this heartwarming production.  A freewill offering  will benefit the Red Willow Bible Camp Cabin Project.  This will be a wonderful way to begin your Easter journey.      

Members of the blog team met Monday, March 10 at a secret location to break in the new bloggers. We are so happy to have them join us in our wonderful blog! Keep your eyes open for new entries!

In an attempt to blur the winter blahs, combat the “there’s never anything to do here,” and gather folks together, we held our first (of which we hope will be many), “Family Fun Night.”  The evening was spent playing different card games, ping pong and a crowd favorite, Bunco.  In Bunco, there are no losers…..well, maybe Kent.  It takes 12 people who take turns rolling the dice and you are continually changing partners so you really get to visit with many different people.   Doesn’t matter what your age is, you just have to be able to toss the dice and yell “bunco.” 

Everyone brought snacks to share, coffee and lemonade were provided.

Our next gathering will be Sunday, February 10th, at the Senior Citizen’s Center.  Fun will begin at 6:30 so please join us.  All age groups welcome and if you have a favorite game, bring that and we’ll give it a try.
