The restrooms across from Pastor Derek's office have fresh paint and new floors, new toilets and sinks are up next for installation. Work will begin on the sanctuary July 10th. We are planning a Night of Worship celebration for the re-opening of the Sanctuary August 5th.

3. What to be more involved?
Then join us for Next Step Connect to learn more about serving opportunities in the church. Next Step Connect will be a series of short meeting following service on July 2, July 23, & August 13. We'll be sharing more information as we get closer to the first one.  

WORSHIP
Let Us Know...
Please be sure to fill out a Connect Card each week to let us know you were at church and how the staff can be praying for you. If you attend the first service drop it in the offering plate as it goes by. If you attend the second service you can put the Connect Card in the offering boxes at the back of the Sanctuary. You can also sign-up for Wednesday Night Supper that way. For those of you who regularly fill them out - THANK YOU!

Be sure to check the bulletin for the question of the week.

Coming up This Weekend:
We kick off the Summer Jam companion series with a message from Pastor Derek that will focus on Luke 19.
