† RALLY DAY/POTLUCK The summer quarter of Sunday School ends on Sunday, August 26. That Sunday, to celebrate the end of our summer unit and beginning of our new Sunday School quarter, we will have a bubble launch at the beginning of the Sunday School hour and a congregational potluck after Sunday School. There will also be some special activities during the Sunday School hour and those students entering the 3rd grade this year will receive a Bible from the Christian Education Committee. There is a sign up sheet on the round table in the narthex for the potluck. Let us know what you are bringing so we can make sure we have everything covered!
† TIM & HOPE MEHL If you missed their presentation or are looking for information about Tim and Hope Mehl, who spoke about being missionaries/teachers in Taiwan, it is available on the round table in the narthex.
† REQUEST TO RECYCLE When purchasing flowers for the altar it would be greatly appreciated if you would return your pots (even the plastic ones) to Diana E, or place them in the church office, so she can use them again. Thanks for your help!
† SUMMER QUARTER OFFERINGS The offerings from Adult Bible class/Sunday School and VBS for the summer quarter will be going to Watered Gardens Gospel Rescue Missions in Joplin. A donation of $15.00 provides one bed for one night. For that amount, a shower, hygiene items, a set of clothing/shoes, a bed and laundry facilities are provided. Let’s see how many nights GSLC can provide with our summer offerings.
† BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS are available in the nurse’s office after the service. You will be given a small form that can be carried in your wallet which will include medical information and a log of your blood pressure readings.
† PRAYER BEARS are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex by nursery) and given to anyone that needs God’s love, comfort, and peace.
