Philippians says:
In all my prayers for all of you, i always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.
What an amazing day yesterday, well over 50 people, of all ages showed up to make an investment in the Life of the church by planting 29 trees. We pray each will take root and thrive and prosper, just as this church does. Thank You for all your hard work. I am anticipating a quick response from Metrocode and soon to have a Certificate in our hands. As we move towards being able to move into the facility, we will have other needs that you may want to help us financially with: more chairs, Holy Communion Table, etc. Will have a wish list in this coming Sunday bulletin.
Speaking of new trees and growing, we too, must water our soul.With so much on the program Sunday, I forgot to mention our Mid Month Summer Solace service. A brief time of prayer, of devotion, of song, and of Holy Communion. This Wednesday at 6:00pm. I certainly need a drink of God's refreshing Spirit. How about you? If so, come out for this casual but engaging service.
In case you missed, and several of you did, we missed you. You may not have heard we have had two babies born to the Covenant church family this past week. Natalie Louise Horton born to Aimee and Stuart Horton and Dexter Alexander Smith born to Emily Desormeaux Smith and Leif Smith. Congrats to the families.
7:30pm
After waiting all day we finally heard from the Metrocode Landscape person. She will be here in the morning to inspect our tree planting. I can't imagine anything other then "Wow, what a great job! The trees look great, Okay you pass!" But pray for such a flowing report.
Secondly, those newly planted trees need a good drink of water every day for several weeks. More water then our little showers provide, so if you would like to be a part of volunteers who come out in the evening or early morning to provide a drink to our plants, please RSVP and I will add you to the list. Many hands make lighter work. Most of the trees are reachable with water hoses. Only the front three need water delivered in buckets.
Wednesday
First Summer Solace - come drink of the Living Water of Christ - Holy Communion, Prayer, Singing, and Devotional by Brother Byron.
Saturday
8:00am - Men's breakfast. We are hoping that this will be in the new building, eating breakfast from our new kitchen.
Sunday
Let's beat the statistics (come to church on Father's Day in crowds normally seen on Mother's Day) and join others as we Worship Our Heavenly Father, and hear how God's wisdom helps provide just the right tools to living in His principles, and of course there will be a gift for each male present.
