Youngsters gather in the front of the sanctuary of First United Methodist Church on Sunday to hear the childrens' sermon. Becky Bodey taught the lesson. This was the first Sunday worship service in the new church, three years after it burned to the ground.
The church has had a series of special occasions leading up to today. There was an Ash Wednesday service on Feb. 18, a prayer vigil from dawn to dusk on Feb. 19-21, and the last service at the ONU Chapel on Feb. 22.

Farmers aren't in the field today. Instead they are on the ONU campus learning about new ag products and technologies.
Over 500 farmers, consultants, industry reps and government officials are in Ada March 3 and 4 participating in a Conservation Tillage & Technology Conference (CTC), one of the largest agricultural programs in northwestern Ohio.
Over 60 speakers are present and about 40 vendors have product displays and representatives available.
