Weekly Updates 07.01.2022

This Sunday

  • Our current teaching focus is called HYMN STUDIES. As we are able, we will be making listening tracks to go along with each week. Listen to the tracks we have so far by clicking the button above (these hymn tracks will also be our homepage for a while)!

  • Join us for worship in the sanctuary at 10:30 am as we partake in communion together and send Brede, Rachel, and Linda off! The nursery will be open as usual for our toddlers and babies. Please note that because this will be the first Sunday of the month, our kids five years old and up will join us in the sanctuary for service. Our youth are invited to join us for worship and for our regular youth gathering and lunch afterward. Prayer team will be available at the front of the sanctuary toward the end of the service to pray with those who would like to receive prayer.

  • We will be collecting donations for Friends In Deed’s School Supply Drive starting Sunday, July 3rd. You can bring supplies from July 3rd-17th or donate money by July 10th for Shawn Mann to purchase supplies. If you would like to help out, here are some things to consider:

    • Please avoid all red and all blue backpacks. This is very important to Friends In Deed.

    • Backpacks should be sturdy enough to handle the rigors of a student's day and the crazy amount of books they heft around, especially for our high school students.

    • The supplies needed are recommended by the Pasadena/Altadena area schools and the list can be found here.

    • They need more supplies for upper grades (6th-12th) than for lower grades.

    • If you want to donate money, you can do so here (select “Friends In Deed”).

  • The Friends In Deed Food Pantry item for this Sunday is cereal.

Future Happenings & Other News

  • Join us for fun and fellowship at the Dodgers game against the Cubs next Friday, July 8th, at 7 pm. Tickets are $20 each. You can drive and meet us at the game or join a group of us gathering at the church at 5:30 pm to ride the metro train in together. Sign up for the game here by no later than 9 pm this Sunday, July 3rd. Email Pastor Chip if cost is a concern or if you have any questions.

  • Kids Camp will take place July 25th-29th from 9 am - 12 pm each day. This year we will explore what it means to cultivate a sense of awe and wonder as we reflect on how we are wonderfully made! We are so excited to hang out, learn, and create as we deepen our relationships with one another. All kids five years old and up are invited to attend. If your kids have other friends who want to get to know our church community, you are welcome to invite them, too. We hope that through all of our activities during the week, our kids will tap into their sense of wonder and curiosity at all of God's creation. You can register your camper here.

  • We need your help to make Kids Camp a special time for our kids! Email Pastors Lindsay and Mary if you’re interested in volunteering for this year’s camp.

Grace and peace to you as we head into the weekend. We can’t wait to worship with you in our sanctuary on Sunday!

Less without you,
