| | | | Colonial Hills: Donation Drive | |
We are partnering with Colonial Hills Elementary School to support their C3 Program, which helps underprivileged children.
This outreach program for underprivileged children attending Colonial Hills Elementary is collecting sports equipment to encourage them to get outside and play this summer!
Requested items include soccer balls, footballs, basketballs, and jump ropes. An Amazon wish list is available. If you choose to order through Amazon, you may ship directly to the church!

Just send it to: Worthington Christian Church, Attn: Alison Morrow, 8145 N. High St, Columbus, OH 43235.
Donations may be dropped off in the blue bin in the Atrium this Sunday.
NOTE: Donations are due by Sunday, July 6.
| | | | Women's Email Devotional: The Gospel of Mark | |
Mark wrote his gospel with this question in mind: Why is a dead Jesus "Good News?"
Unlike the other gospels, Mark leaves us at the empty tomb and asks, "Do you believe Jesus died for you? Do you believe he is alive?" These are questions we must explore through the eyewitness accounts of those who encountered Jesus.
Beginning Monday, June 9, through Monday, August 11, we will read the Gospel of Mark together through email devotions.
These devotionals will arrive in your inbox every morning, Monday through Friday, and should take about five minutes to finish.

Christian Missionary Fellowship is seeking individuals who may be interested in joining the team of mission workers now serving in Ethiopia.
Our mission partners in that country, Aaron and Morganne Weeks, will be with us from June 10 to 12 and would love to start a conversation and provide more information.
If you are interested, please contact Tom Sherrod to schedule a meeting time with Aaron and Morganne
| | | | Fill a baby bottle with change for the PDHC! | |
The Pregnancy Decision Health Center (PDHC) needs your prayers and financial support. Baby Bottles will be available in the Atrium for you to pick up this Sunday! All you need to do is fill it with change and return it to the church by Father's Day (June 15).
You may drop off your coin-filled baby bottle at the Welcome Center on any Sunday morning or anytime Monday through Friday during office hours (8:00 AM to 4:30 PM).
Questions? Please contact Alison Morrow.

You can also "fill a bottle" online!
The PDHC has a special donation page for Worthington Christian Church's 'Bottles for Life' campaign. Please visit their website to donate online today!
