Vacation Bible
School starts tonight 6:00-8:30. Come, register at the
door. Bring some friends. Session two is tomorrow
from 9:00-11:30. It will be boatloads of fun teaching the
kids that we can shine God’s light. Hoping for a pile of
kids from preschool to 5th grade. Youth helpers
welcome.
On Sunday our seminary intern Marilyn is preaching on John 6:1-15, the
feeding of the five thousand. There will be a short VBS program
after fellowship time, in place of all Lively learning options.
Our session met with Kim Adams last week and recommended to the
presbytery’s committee on preparation for ministry that Kim move from
inquirer to candidate for ministry. It was meaningful to hear
Kim describe her studies, along with her year-long, part-time internship in
a largely African American PC(USA) congregation on the south side of Chicago. We
compared and contrasted that experience with Marilyn’s here in suburban
southwest Florida this summer.
The session set some dates for Autumn:
September 9 - Welcome back Sunday – Lively Learning Expo
September 23 @7 - Blessing of the Animals
October 7 - World Communion Meal, International Peacemaker
October 22 - Peace in the Park
Saturday, October 27 - Sing for Your Supper, guest speaker
2nd Fridays - Movie Night at Peace
Next Saturday night, August 4, the Fellowship team invites you to a church
family dinner experience at the old classic Linger Lodge at
5:00. No reservations needed.
Mission Team is counting on school supplies for Beth-El Farmworker
Ministries in the next few weeks.
Peace to you,
Elizabeth
