Sunday - Dr. Mary Lou Shea will be preaching for me this Sunday as I'm away in Maryland for a wedding. The passage is Genesis 34 which brings us to and through the story of Dinah's rape and her brothers' retaliation. And again, we'll see our deep need for the grace of God. I look forward to preaching again next week as we wrap up Jacob's story. - Pastor Jeremy
Your Spanish Phrase of the Week - Cristo me ama which is Jesus loves me. You'll need to know this phrase in a few weeks to go along with a special presentation by the children.
Save the Date! - Sunday, September 9th will be a day for the arts! Stay tuned for information about an exciting musical opportunity in the morning worship gathering, but for now, plan on coming to the Ktizo Gallery & Nook's first public showing. While we've had the art work of Reyna Elizabeth up for several weeks now, we will have an open showing at 2:00 PM that day. This will also kick-off a week-long online silent auction for the individual pieces of Reyna's collection. All proceeds will go to benefit Gotitas de Amor.
- Do you have unwanted bags of clothes sitting around? If you have no one you know to pass them on to, there is a Salvation Army donation bin at the Rehoboth shelter location. While recycling is always good, most of the bins we see for "organizations"along the road are actually for-profit companies. Donating to the Salvation Army is important to their on-going ministry in helping those in need.
- Our Minister of Worship is moving from one apartment to another in Quincy (just a few blocks apart) on August 31. If you can, plan on helping that day! Please let Sarah know if you are able to help.
