This Sunday we begin a five-week sermon series on Revelation. Though filled with many images and symbols understood more readily by the original audience than by us, there is but one revelation- the revelation of Jesus Christ. Written as a word of comfort and hope to the faithful living at the end of the first century, we trust that the God who spoke to those early Christians will speak also to us.

 Wednesday Morning Bible Study will resume August 3 at 10:30 AM in the Fellowship House library. We will reflect upon Revelation 4.

We are hiring in our Sunday morning nursery! As two of our college-age team members head off to school, we are looking for at least one additional hire for our nursery team.

The Congregational Care Ministry Team of the diaconate is updating the list of those in our congregation who may benefit from visits from the church. We believe we have the names of all those in care facilities, as well as those who are completely homebound. However, we know there are others who are experiencing health or mobility issues that make it difficult to participate fully in the life of the church. If this describes you, or if you know of someone who may fall into this category and might enjoy visits, please speak to Julie Hill or contact the church office.

If you are in 6th -12th grade and interested in helping on one of the Monday routes this summer, please use this link to sign-up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0948acab2dabf49-meals
