he is our Lord and our God. Amen.

need more sleep than teenagers, and fun times for all!

6, and wondered whether we wanted to put up a booth that night (it is also a
concert night at the Town Park). Father Mike said Holy Name is in. Do we want
to be? If so, a planning team is needed ASAP!

New
Teams
We are looking for a couple of folks willing to help with some ideas and
making them happen (dream big, scale back) for this fall! You in?
·
A Creative Team
·
A Welcome Team
·
A Communication Team
·
A Graphics Team
·
A Small Groups Team
·
A Safety Team
Because this fall will be focused around preaching/teaching about Old
Testament “Heroes” we need folks who can imagine ways to tell their stories
(like Noah) in really creative ways.
In addition, we will be looking for folks who really have a desire to
see new families come to our worship and want to see really positive ways to
welcome them and get them settled.
We also want to stretch our communications so that we are reaching folks
with good information in the best way possible, not only to reach new people,
but to keep in good communication with our currently active ones!
We need graphics support, not only at the logo level, but for our OT
Heroes series. So, how do we make it feel like we are Moses in the Ark on a
Sunday morning in our whole building!
We want to expand our small group network, and so are looking for some
folks who love small groups, and might be willing to create a series of small
group gatherings to see how OT Heroes can change our thinking and doing today!
We want to expand our safety team, as we look at ways to keep everyone
who gathers here safe from trips and falls, keeping our records secure, fire
safety, and safety from bad actors, both in terms of internal practices, as
well as outside influencers.
These areas of special skills are outside the normal internal working of
the church, where we are looking for EMPOWERkids staff, church officers, and
directors of programs. These are bite-sized opportunities to “make a
difference” using the time, energy, and craziness you already have.
So, for example, a welcome gift idea: church mugs with Starbucks cards.
Or a perfect place for Bible and Brew. Or, light stacks (read that lite snacks,
didn’t you) made out of furnace filters and LED par cans, that dance with the
music. Curious? See Jeff or any of our other crazy leaders!
