Just two weeks after the flea market, the next Pearl Cottage Bookstore Day happens on May 6. That’s twice in two weeks that you can go to the book cottage to stock up on summer reading material. And, you can visit with the cheerful bookstore ladies who not only love to see you, but they also cherish your visits. Remember, you never know what you might find at the Pearl Book Cottage. All proceeds go to support the Bookstore’s local charities.

Pearl Church of Christ has announced its annual Vacation Bible School dates — May 29 through June 2, 9 a.m. until noon. Please share this information with all your friends and family. Everyone is welcome!

This week’s Bible verse comes from Ephesians 4:15-16: Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into Him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love . (NIV)
