Today is Family Worship Sunday. There is no child care or Junior Church. Everyone will come together in the sanctuary following Sunday School. We encourage families to sit together and worship together. The Youth will share their experiences at the MCUSA Youth Convention in San Jose, CA. Pastor Steve will have a participatory sermon.
PLEASE BE PATIENT as we continue in the final stage of our building program. Everything inside has been completed and inspectors will come this week. Construction on the new septic system will continue; please be careful in the parking lot – it’s a mess! The retaining wall along the road has been completed. Please be careful and patient as you move around the building and grounds.
The Leadership Team has approved a list of nominees for church leadership positions that has been prepared by the Gift Discernment Committee. Church members are invited to participate by casting their vote on the “Affirmation Ballot” on Sunday, August 5. Please see Joe Lusby if you need an absentee ballot. Absentee ballots must be returned to Joe no later than the morning of August 5.
There will be no Baptism Instruction Class today (July 29). We will meet at the church on Saturday, August 4 at 8:30 am to go to the Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society.
