Face to Face
Pastor Joseph Santos Youth and Young Adult Pastor
This week, we will conclude our sermon series on the letters of John with a message that stands apart from the thoughts in 1 and 2 John. The main issue in 3 John is a more personal one, the challenge of showing hospitality and receiving those who have been “sent out.” John ends his letter with the hope of speaking to all the followers of Christ face to face.
13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face.
Special Blood Drive Opportunity - In appreciation for our long commitment to hosting blood drives, our drive on July 12 has been selected for one donor to receive a TV (to be given at a later date). Since it is just for our location, the chance of being selected is quite good. See above for information on making an appointment. Walk-Ins are also welcome.
Memorial Reception Help
It has been a few years since we have updated our list of those who are willing to help with Memorial Receptions. There are three kinds of help we need most:
- Willingness to make cookies for the reception
- Willingness to help in the kitchen
- Willingness to be one of the Coordinators
If you are willing to help in any of those ways, please contact Arlys Fillman at aafillman@me.com or the church office (Name, e-mail address and/or cell phone number are helpful if you leave a message). A special "Thank you" to those who have been helping already! (It would be helpful to us if you would please confirm your willingness to continue helping, too!) Thanks!
Fellowship Dinner
Everyone is invited to join us for our next potluck meal on Sabbath, July 19, in the Fellowship Hall. Members, as you are able, please plan to contribute to the meal by bringing 10-12 servings of a vegetarian dish per person attending (the Potluck Team provides enough food for their families and our guests, but we depend on our members bringing food in order to have enough). As always, visitors are welcome to join us as our guests.
