Can you believe we are halfway through July already? My goodness where does the time go? What have you and your amazing family been up to this summer? Have you caught any of our movies in the park? Okay, that was far too many questions in a row... :)
KIDS TODAY...
I came across a wonderful video today that I'd like to share with you all. Statistics show that approximately 1 in 4 of our children can be diagnosed with a psychological disorder. If you know 10 kids, chances are 2 to 3 of them are or will be diagnosed with something. This video was made by a young woman named Carly. Carly has autism. Carly wants the world to know what life is like for her, and has coauthored a book about living with autism with her father. CLICK THIS LINK TO SEE "CARLY'S CAFE" (It's about 3 minutes long).
UPCOMING EVENTS
- Summer Sunday School: A guy was told to go dunk himself in a river in order to be healed from an awful disorder. Um....really?! Really! Send your kiddos downstairs following the sermon on Sunday in order for them to hear the story of Namaan, an important dude who learned just how awesome God is!
- VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL!! Have you registered your kiddos yet? Couple of things to note: PreK kiddos are going to be there Mon - Thurs from 9:00 - 2:30, just like the rest of the kids (this is a change from what was publicized before). Thursday = day at Colvill Park (you'll get more info on this) as well as singing/food in the park across the street from church at 5:00. Friday = singing at Jordan Towers (more info to come). Click this entire paragraph to register your kiddo!!

Versese to Ponder
The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;
23 the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.
24 The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.

Did you know...
In Hebrew, Namaan's name literally means "pleasantness".
May you pause today, look up, and listen for the voice of the Lord in your life.
