Pleasanton Sports Park
The Lynnewood co-ed softball team plays Monday evening/nights from April through July in the Church recreational league at the Pleasanton Sports Park. Fans are always welcome and are really appreciated by the players. Lynnewood typically has the largest fan group of any of our opponents, so let's keep up the support!

Lynnewood Sanctuary
Congratulations and
welcome to Kylie, Tristan, Paige, Glenn, and Austin, who were confirmed and
received into church membership on Pentecost Sunday, May 23rd. After completing
a two year Confirmation program, and with the support of their parents and
mentors, Kylie, Tristan, Paige, Glenn, and Austin took the vows of church
membership and were honored at a luncheon in the Fellowship Hall following the
10:30 worship service. Confirmation class organizers and teachers, Anne Anderson
and Kimberly Carlson, were also recognized during the luncheon for the
invaluable gifts of their time and commitment to these young people. Serving as
mentors this year were: Bruce Barrie, Bob Gatehouse, Cindy Jensen, Raeanne
Passantino, and Jason Speck. Thank you to parents, mentors, and teachers alike
for your important role in nurturing these young people in their faith journeys.

Lynnewood Fellowship Hall
Lynnewood's Great Grill Night featured mouth-watering prawns, chicken, pulled pork, tri-tip, hot wings, and BBQ ribs, grilled to perfection by six teams. Diners voted on their favorite grilled item, purchased delicious homemade goodies for dessert, and bid on award-winning pies, cakes, and bread. This event kicked off the opening of registration for our Labor Day weekend of the Lynnewood in the Redwoods. One of the always-anticipated events of the weekend is the Talent Show, so diners at the grill night were treated to three musical acts, such as those seen in the retreat's Talent Show. All proceeds went towards the retreat and towards relief for recent earthquakes through UMCOR.

A design team for the worship space offered their gifts of
artistic creativity to enhance the visual expression of our Holy Week worship
services.
At the Easter service, Diana led the children in creating
a small flower cross (see third picture below) from cut flowers provided by
members of the congregation from their own yards.
We are blessed by the gifts God shares and calls us
to use to God’s glory!

The Maundy Thursday service included a Worship in Drama, featuring the Passion Week from the dinner at Simon the Leper's house to Peter's three-time denial. Curt Anderson was the director of this play adapted from the Scriptures by Joy Bowman Wadekamper. Thank you Jo Betty for the beautiful costumes.

Mystery Dinner and Fundraiser for SSP
Feb 6, 2010
Lynnewood Sanctuary
It was a “A Rocky Night In A Mountain Chalet”! The much-vaunted and little-known Lynnewood Players, under the direction of the unstoppable Curt Anderson, proudly presented a raucously exhilarating who-done-it, set in an Alpine Chalet and featuring a cast of Olympic stars! The three course meal was prepared by the young and heralded rising star chefs also known as the 6th through 8th graders along with their fearless leaders: Erik and Cindy Jensen, Dawn Leininger, Kimberly Carlson, and Barbara Berlogar. Special thanks to the adventuresome men of the Men’s Breakfast Crew who provided ingredients for the dinner, the muscle for the arrangement of the dining facilities and also helped with serving. Thank you to our Senior High Youth who were the servers. All proceeds benefitted the SSP youth trips.

Truckee, California
Sixteen went on the annual Lynnewood Snow Trip. We stayed at the VFW Hall in Truckee and skied/snowboarded at Alpine Meadows. After a full week of storms in the Bay Area, which brought tons of new snow to the mountains, conditions were superb on the mountain. Everyone had a super time, from those on the bunny slopes to the dare-devils on the double diamonds.
