Do unto others? If you welcome them - you welcome me – are we really welcoming to others? And therefore, welcoming Jesus?

July 9, 2023 - “No Need For Stones”

Rev. Peter

Grace. Presbyterians love the word, but it is a hard one to define. Ask yourself: “When have I been a beneficiary of grace in my life? How does that help me define grace?” We will be looking at the story of the woman caught in adultery, exploring the nature of grace we find there.

Grateful / Thankful / Blessed

We are blessed to have talented musicians in our midst. To celebrate and wish Geoffrey well on his last Sunday with us, our choir came ‘out of summer retirement’ for the second week in a row to help lead our bluegrass music (bless you all!!!), and the ‘Colorful Shirt Band’ made their debut. Thanks to (from left to right) Clarence Lomheim, Ken Burrill, Thelma Wagner, Geoffrey Simmins, Danny Duncan, and Peter Coutts. You made us proud, and helped us worship well!!

To give our dedicated and wonderful church school teachers a summer break, our last church school classes were held Sunday, JUNE 18th.

Starting JUNE 25 and continuing ~ and including ~ SEPTEMBER 3:
Our awesome caregivers Lauren Cantlon and Lilwen Henrichsen are ready to eagerly welcome babies and children under 3 as usual in the Nursery ~ and for the summer ~ are happy to include all children aged 3-5 as well!
We will have Children’s Activity Sheets at the back of the Sanctuary for children Grade 1 and up. These sheets will be based on the scripture reading for Sunday, so the whole family will be able to discuss ‘hot topics’ on the way home from church!! The sheets will be labeled for 2 age ranges: one for children 3 and up; another for children 7 and up. Please have your child pick up whichever one they will enjoy working on the most.
Regular Church School will start again Sunday, SEPTEMBER 10th. We will be welcoming EVERYONE back with joy and enthusiasm after what we hope will be a RENEWING summer!!
