On Sunday, July 2nd, we will be having our regular Sunday service at 11 a.m. We will use the special Order of Matins as our liturgy for this service. Pastor's Day Off will be as usual, Monday, July 3rd. Since July 4th, Independence Day, is a federal holiday, that will be a holiday for our Pastor and the church office will be closed. We will, however, be holding Bible study on Wednesday, July 5th at the usual time, 6:30 p.m. If you need to contact Pastor duing the holiday weekend, please call his cell phone and if there is no answer, please leave a message.

"Changing Currents" Continues This Wednesday evening, join us at 6:30 p.m. in the church basement as we continue our "Changing Currents" Bible study series. This week's topic will be "The Bible & Same Sex Marriage". Be sure to bring your Bible and a friend to join us as we discuss and study this controversial topic that faces the church today. Also, if you know of someone who would like to attend Bible study, but would prefer a morning hour during the week, please let Pastor know as he hopes to add a 2nd Bible study time for those who can't make it in the evenings once we have our 2nd preaching station started later this summer.

Pastor out of Town Thursday Pastor will be in Des Moines on Thursday, June 22nd. He will be leaving shortly after noon and return late that night.
