🌼 A Heartfelt Thank You to Trinity Lutheran Church in Whittlesey 🌼

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to the Trinity Lutheran Church and everyone involved in their annual Easter Giving Tree Initiative. Your generosity provided Easter gifts and treats to children in need, bringing a little extra EASTER CHEER into their lives.

We are truly grateful for our generous community—because without you, we could not provide the sweet extras that make such a meaningful difference for our children. Your kindness shines brightly, and it’s felt in every smile you helped create.

Thank you for making this Easter season a little brighter! 💛🐣

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

In recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month, the Taylor County SART (Sexual Assault Response Team) has arranged an educational session for all community members and professionals.

This event will take place April 28th at NTC, with a virtual option available for those who prefer to attend online. A special guest speaker from In**st Aware, a survivor advocacy group, will be presenting on statistics, prevention, and support for survivors.

In addition, the team will host a panel discussion covering:

• how to talk with your kids about staying safe
• what the process looks like if something does occur
• available resources and support

There will be two sessions offered: 1 PM and 6 PM.

The flyer is attached for easy registration and more information on the topics that will be covered.

Please join this important event to learn how to help prevent abuse and support survivors in our community. 💙
