SEASON AFTER PENTECOST 2022

• Thursday July 8 th @ 5:30pm – Welcome Group at the Bodiford Home: 1022 E 15 th St. National City Ca 91950
• Sunday July 11 th @ 11:00am – Fifth Sunday Following Pentecost (Let’s begin around 11:10am to give folks time to park)

Holy Eucharist Sunday:

As many of you have certainly noticed, we are having a hard time with parking. Another church has begun meeting in the large church building and has been putting pressure on our normal parking spaces.

For the next few weeks, we will try to adjust by starting a few minutes later than normal to give some time for our church family to find parking.

In the coming months, the vestry will discuss changing our start time as the Lord leads us. Feel free to talk to any vestry member with your concerns or ideas!

Welcome Groups Begin This Week!

An optional gathering mid-week begins for our church family! Part of our church vision is to welcome one another just as Christ has welcomed us with open arms and hearts of hospitality. We will eat

together, reflect on the first 2 chapters of our book (Gentle and Lowly), and join together in Compline Prayer.

Do you know someone who would benefit from a marriage course?

Yeah, me too! Marriage can be a challenge and a blessing, much like life. With the pressures of Covid-19 continuing to lift, many people are finding that relationships are some of the hardest things you will ever engage in. This is especially true for your own home! 2 years of being stuck together isolated from the world has the potential to break a marriage. Young children and vocational pressure can also add stress to marriages. You get the point.

In the Fall, starting in October, we will provide a 7-week marriage course as an outreach to our neighborhood, and as an in-reach to our beloved church family. We can use your help in inviting neighbors and those who could benefit from this course! Will you take some time to pray and think through who might attend from your invitation? Unmarried couples or partners, those in pre-marital

relationships and long-standing married couples can all benefit from this course. Click the link below to peruse the website to get more information:

Each week there will be food, a video and private discussion for your spouse to engage in. And yes, the topic of Sex comes up! These are 7 weeks of really important discussions and topics to engage in for any couple!
