This Week August 6, 2024
Dear Folks,
Hope you all have your electricity back and are doing well. Looks like we have more dicey weather coming, so take care!
This Thursday, August 8, is my Prayer Day. If you have any joys or concerns you would like me to lift up, please let me know.
This Sunday, August 11, is the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost. Our service will be outdoors. Please bring a chair and wear a T-shirt of somewhere you have been. In case of rain or very hot weather, we will be in the sanctuary. The scripture is Ephesians 4:25-5:2. The sermon is “Behave Yourself”. The service will be livestreamed on Facebook and available for later viewing on Facebook and YouTube.
The Wednesday evening Concerts on the Green continue on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. The Vitality Team will be handing out water and the Men’s Group will be selling hotdogs. Thank you to everyone who donated water. We are good for the rest of the season!!
Woman’s Fellowship will be collecting items for Church World Service School Kits during August. Needed are 70-count spiral notebooks. Also, we will be collecting new backpacks for local students in need. There will be a box for donations in the alcove. Questions? See Lois Ricker.
