Announcements for 6-30-24

Hey! Hey! Hey! Can you hear our Jungle Jam? VBS may be over, but we are praying that the lessons learned have taken root in the kids’ hearts, that they make decisions to follow Christ and spread the Good News to those around them! Thank you to everyone who volunteered in any way, brought food items for lunch, and for the many prayers before, during, and after VBS. We had 153 kids registered and 40+ volunteers. What a week! Our mission offering went to the Harvest Alliance Church in Minden, IA. They lost all of their property in a recent tornado. Our kids so generously donated enough to the mission fund that the kids at Harvest Alliance will be able to rebuild their playground! 😊 From Pastor Kurt Barman, “Thank you so very much, what a blessing this will be! From our congregation to yours, 

Thank you!”

*Thank you for your assistance in keeping our building looking great. Please dispose of any water bottles or coffee cups from the sanctuary as you exit worship. 

Please pray for the students who have already attended or will be attending camp at Inspiration Hills this summer!
