BREAKFAST CONTINUES

It’s breakfast time each Sunday at 9:45 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall downstairs for children 3 years old through high school. We’ve had a positive response to our new Sunday school format. After the children have eaten they enjoy a short story, object lesson, song or craft. During the 10:45 a.m. morning worship service they are dismissed to their Sunday school classes. This program will continue throughout the summer. (Seventh–twelfth graders meet for their Sunday school class at 9:45 a.m. on the 1st & 2nd Sundays; on the 3rd and 4th --and sometimes 5th--Sundays, they will dismiss during morning worship with the rest of classes.)

GUYS GO TO THE
"OLD BALL GAME!"


It’s a man’s night out (sons invited, too) when the guys leave on Monday, July 2 to see a Tri-City Dust Devils baseball game. If you would like to go, contact Pastor Rick or the church office. Arrangements will be made to go up in the church van and will be leaving the church parking lot at 5:00 p.m. Tickets will be purchased at the box office, $5-$7 bleacher seats are all that are available. Groups of 15 or more will get free hats! Let’s fill up the van—that’s 15 exactly, but we will arrange for more transportation, if needed.

GET YOUR JULY 4TH SUPPLIES!!


Tamara Pahl wants to remind everyone to get their July 4th fireworks at the stand in Albertson’s parking lot. TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS, TOO! If you have some free time—even an hour or two--call her at 276-7115 to be sure we’ve got good coverage for the few and busiest days left to sell!

BRRRRRRR... IT’S VBS TIME!



"Polar Expedition" is this summer’s theme for Vacation Bible School where kids can learn that loving Jesus is cool. They will enjoy Glacier Games, Igloo Eats and other Arctic adventures. Shannon Ellner, Teri Brickey & Cindy Fitzpatrick are teaming up to bring our kids some snowy-weather fun beginningJuly 9-13. If you would like to help please call Teri at 966-6962. If you haven’t participated in a church activity lately, step up and volunteer. Be part of this fun & exciting time where longtime memories are made that could make a difference in the life of a child.

ROOF FUNDS STILL NEEDED

Our wonderful new roof looks great and has been put to the test recently with several big (but welcome!) cloudbursts. Now we face paying for it. If you would like to contribute to this cause, be sure to specify on your envelope or check "roof" and your donation will go to taking care of this necessary expense. At this time donations are down and we still have a ways to go to meet the goal. Of course, your donation is always tax deductible.
