Kenya Mother’s Day Kitchen ! Please come to the latest version of the youth pop-up restaurant in Sacramento this coming Sunday for mother’s day. All proceeds go towards the medical mission trip to Kenya this August. This edition of the pop-up restaurant features all the classics from the past categories (the “breakfast plate” options, smoothies, and crepe creations) and because it is mother’s day also includes composed plates of savory dinner dishes. To accommodate everyone who will be coming and bringing their mother out for a special treat we have extended the hours. The restaurant will be open from 9am to 3pm. !Youth Committee Meeting !

Erratum ! In last week’s issue of the NorCal Reformer we accidentally listed Romania as having the fourth largest membership of any country in the SDARM. In fact, Romania has the second largest SDARM membership with only Brazil having more total members by country. !
