| General Announcements Thanks To All Who Volunteered At This Year’s Glad Peach—We Raised Almost $2000! Much hard work paid off, with a lot of barbeque and peach pie being sold in order for us to raise funds for our ministry. And special thanks to Marsha for her hard work cooking and putting together Beach Party At Sven’s Home On Saturday, August 23 (4 PM until 11 PM) Put it in your calendar, so we can say goodbye to summer in a big way. The meat portion of the food will be provided, but all are invited to bring a side dish to share. There will be food and fun available, as well as a lot of water recreational activities. Join us! Blessing of The Back Packs On Sunday, August 24 Bring your child’s or grandchild’s back pack (or laptop, for the older youth) to worship on the 24th, and we’ll bless them for the upcoming year. Oh, and bring the kids as we’ll be adding a special element in that service for them as well!

Christian Education The Minor Books of The Bible To Be Fall Bible Study Ever wondered what the book of Philemon was all about? How about this unknown Titus guy? What is being lamented in the five chapter book of Lamentations? These and other questions will be answered (hopefully) with our fall Bible study beginning on Sunday at 11:20 AM on September 14. These “short” books of the Bible often get overlooked by the “tall” (long) books of the Bible. Come and explore these often ignored books of the Bible. No study guides or other expertise will be required—just show up with your open mind!
