~ We welcome Ken Hillmer as our Guest Speaker today and look forward to hearing what God has laid on his heart for us this morning.

~ We are extremely short-staffed for our fellowship time after church. Only today is covered for August so far so we really need a bit of help this month. Please remember that if you sign up for working in the kitchen, you don’t have to bake also – you can call someone on the list of willing bakers, who aren’t able to work in the kitchen. So please sign up and call someone on the list who will make some goodies for you if you like. But remember that it is vacation time and a lot of people are away, so if you don’t get the first one or two on your list, keep trying – you will get someone! If no one signs up, there will be no fellowship time next week.

~ Today we have the pleasure of having Nathan Lang as our Guest Musician. Nathan will be singing 2 self-written songs “Praise and Thanksgiving Blues” & “This Day-A Prayer”.  Both songs speak to our need to care for the Earth and to give thanks to God in all things (Ephesians 5:20).

Nathan spent his formative years in Liberia, West Africa and Guyana, South America as a missionary kid. He has taught guitar & bass locally for over 15 years & has been involved performing and teaching in many worship and praise bands.

Nathan enjoys spending time with his 2 1/2 year old grandson Kieran, which in its Hindi translation means “beam of light!

~ We are extremely short-staffed for our fellowship time after church. The first four Sundays in August we have no one to make coffee or provide refreshments. Please remember that if you sign up for working in the kitchen, you don’t have to bake also – you can call from the list of willing people who have signed their names up to bake, who aren’t able to work in the kitchen. So please sign up and call someone on the list who will make some goodies for you. But remember that it is vacation time and a lot of people are away, so if you don’t get the first one or two on your list, keep trying – you will get someone! If no one signs up, there will be no coffee or goodies for fellowship time in August.
