Midweek Meetup: Week of July 23
Verse of the Day~
“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus answered. “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day. (John 6:43-44)
Prayer~
Jesus, silence our grumbling. Strength us to reconcile a conflict when it’s possible, and grant us peace when it is not. Lighten our load and brighten our hearts. In Your name, Amen.
Special Note~
Effective next week, our Church Office Hours are changing to Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, 1-4 p.m. These hours are more consistent with Pastor MJ’s new schedule, and the change allows for the return of Makayla Goodwin, our Church Secretary. Pastor MJ will remain available on Mondays, often in her office, but always by phone at 719-469-7717.
Meeting Jesus ~
We want to celebrate the 40+ children & youth whom we’ve hosted this week here at the church as participants and crew leaders for this year’s “True North” Vacation Bible School. High praise to the many volunteers who made this week happen! Please join us for one of two opportunities to celebrate the ministry: First, this Thursday, July 24, at 8 p.m. for the Closing Celebration and second on Sunday morning in worship at 10 a.m. as we recap the week.
Meeting Friends ~
Our annual Picnic & Pool Party happens on Sunday, July 27th. Come to Potter Park at 5:30 with a dish to share & a place setting (we’ll have extras if you need it). At 6:30, we’ll head over to the Wipeout. Bring friends! It’s a big pool–we’ve got plenty of room to share.
Sharing Hope ~
For anyone wishing to support the people affected by the flooding in Texas, we recommend Convoy of Hope. You may donate from their website at www.convoyofhope.org. They are assisting victims already and are a trusted mission partner.
