Elder Board:
- We would like to form a Missions Committee to promote a greater awareness in the congregation of Christ’s mission worldwide. If you might be interested in participating, see Pastor Dan.
- ‘Our Grace mission is to be an instrument of God’s love trough which our world will come to know Jesus Christ as Savior and follow Him as Lord.’ We have restated His Great Commission for congregational use in publication, supported by our six commitments: Salvation, Worship, Prayer, Word, Fellowship, and Service.
Youth:
- Our next big event is a camp out at Ocean Shores July 17-19. National Youth Convention, August 9-12, Estes Park, CO.
Vacation Bible School is scheduled for July 6-10. We are looking forward to a great week! Pre-registration is going well. There are still opportunities for service. See Judy Lazicki. And donations for the purchase of food are welcome. The special offering project is the Everett Mission Women and Children’s Shelter.
Several of our ministries are in recess for the summer: Sunday School, Home Fellowship Groups, Women of Grace, Youth Bible Studies. Watch for other activities.
Prayer Notes:
- We ask the Father for all the necessary resources required, material and spiritual, to accomplish the task He has given us.
- We continue to remember those in our congregation in critical medical situations: Nadine & Emma L, as well as seniors struggling with the debilitating effects of aging.
- May God bless our VBS with all the kids we can handle; families of God would add to our church family; health and safety for children and staff; the harmony of the Holy Spirit, and the effective presentation of the saving message of Jesus Christ.
- We ask the Father to lead us into a new ministry that will connect with our community
- Pray that Andrew and Kris Larsen and their children will make many friends in their neighborhood in Taiwan, with the increasing opportunities to share the good news of Jesus, and that they will be encouraged in their home away from family and friends.
- May our Father bless the traveling and vacationing members of our congregation during the summer months with safetly, recreation, good family times, and spiritual refreshment.
