IN OUR DAILY PRAYERS this week we continue to pray for Connie Hinckley as she continues to improve after her strokes, other family and friends who are sick, those who are recovering from surgery, those in mourning, our shut-in and inactive members, and at least two people in your life who do not know Christ.
BEFORE LEAVING the sanctuary, please find one person whom you don’t know or don’t know very well, introduce yourself and have a brief chat with them.
THE LAST DAY OF SUNDAY SCHOOL classes will be today.
SUNDAE SUNDAY will be next Sunday. Yeah!! The congregation is invited to join our Sunday School students and teachers as we finish up another year. Ice cream sundaes will be served by the Board of Education after the worship service. See you there!
SARAH RUML would like to extensively thank all who have supported her in preparing for her mission trip this summer (June 12th - July 27th), whether financially or through prayer. Her goal of $2,000 has not only been met, it has been passed. A huge thank you to you all! After returning, Sarah will send newsletters to those whose addresses she has due to donations. If you would like to be added to the mailing list, please contact Scott or Susan Ruml. Sarah has also created a website where further information on her mission work can be found (missionmemos.webs.com). Thank you again!
CARING BRIDGE WEBSITE – A Caring Bridge website has been set up for Connie Hinckley at www.caringbridge.org so that those who have a computer or access to one can get current updates on her rehab progress. If you do not have a computer, you may stop in to The Kairos. A printed copy of her progress report will be posted at the counter along with suggestions for assistance as you are able.
FREEMAN REGIONAL HOSPITAL AUXILIARY is conducting their annual fund drive. There is a basket in the back of the church for your donations. The Hospital Auxiliary uses these funds to purchase needed items for our local hospital/nursing home. There is also a sheet on the bulletin board in the Fellowship Hall for you to sign if you are willing to help or donate for their annual soup day in October. We are very fortunate to have this health facility in our community; please contribute if you are able. Thank you.
OUR PREVIOUS HYMNALS – If anyone would like their own personal copy (or another copy) of our previous hymnal, we still have some available. Just contact the Pastor before next weekend.

DID YOU KNOW that 8% of the people in Vietnam are Christian, that 81% claim no religion whatsoever, that atheism is the semi-official language and that it is against the law to do any religious work of any kind off the church property?
