New Bible Study
- Looking for a summer Bible Study? Francie Larsen’s Wednesday morning class is studying the Book of James 10:30 am.
- Join us this fall as we resume our Wednesday Night Bible Study on September 3 at 5:30 pm. We’ll embark on a six-week journey through Adam Hamilton’s Simon Peter: Flawed but Faithful Disciple. Discover how Peter’s story—marked by human frailty, fierce devotion, and spiritual transformation—can reflect our own path of faith. From denial to bold leadership, Peter’s life offers a powerful portrait of what it means to be led by the Spirit.
Do You Love to Sing?
Since the choir is taking a break for the summer, we are looking for individuals or groups to provide the special music at either the 9 am or 11 am service. If you are interested, please see Frank Rotolo or Reuben.

Our Second Mile Giving in July will go towards our 4Paws Pet Food program. Please see the bulletin insert for more information. If you would like to support this ministry, please mark “4Paws Pet Food” on the memo line of your check.
