Just a reminder that the June/July newsletter, calendar, and Bible reading plan were distributed last month. If you need another copy, I’d be happy to email them to you, and printed copies are also available at the church. The next newsletter, which will cover August and September, will be distributed at the end of July.
Vacation Bible School is just around the corner! Ashley is still looking for two more volunteers and is also accepting donations for VBS snacks. Be sure to stop by the VBS table in the sanctuary to see how you can help. VBS will be held July 13–17 from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Children ages 3 (with a parent or guardian) through those entering 5th grade are invited to join us for a fun and exciting week! Register Here
The Youth Group will be traveling to Williamsport for their mission trip from the evening of August 2 through August 8. They are still in need of one additional adult volunteer to accompany the group. If you are interested in serving in this way, please contact Nic Harclerode for more information.
A reminder that Rev. Steve Moore is serving as our interim pastor. If you have any pastoral needs, please don’t hesitate to contact him directly. You may also reach out to Wendy Lucas or me, and we will be happy to connect you with him so he can provide the care and support you need.
We have an exciting summer ahead! In July, we’ll enjoy Vacation Bible School with special VBS music and decorations, followed by a potluck luncheon on July 26. Looking ahead to August, we’ll host a Songs & Scripture Sunday on August 9, featuring your favorite hymns and praise songs—we’ll be taking song requests in the coming weeks. Then, on August 16, we’ll have the privilege of welcoming Jacob Baskin as our guest speaker, followed by a recap of our Youth Group mission trip. We encourage you to join us each week so you don’t miss all that God is doing in the life of our church. Sunday School meets every Sunday from 9:00 a.m. –10:00 a.m., with Junior Church available during the 10:15 a.m. worship service. Coffee and light refreshments are also available in the Gathering Place from 9:30 a.m. – 10:15 a.m. We look forward to worshiping with you!
We are still the church this summer. We are still the church as we await a full-time pastor. We are still 2nd Ave—continuing in the same mission, the same ministry, and the same faithfulness we’ve always known. And through it all, we invite you to walk alongside us on this journey.
