May Update

 

For those who like to stay in the loop...

Vacation Bible School (VBS) is upon us. Talk to Kendra Walker about helping. This is a fantastic opportunity to be God’s Love in Action. VBS is the only Christian education that some of our community's children will receive this year. We will wear the same shirts as we have done for the last 2 years. See Kendra if you need to order one.

We seek an assistant treasurer, co-treasurer, or similar role to align our fiscal accountability with current practices. While this is mainly for accountability, some technical skills would be beneficial. We are in the age of online banking and giving, EFT, and document sharing. These skills would be helpful, but more importantly, do you believe that God is leading you to help in this area? Skills can be learned, but is this where God wants you?

Start thinking about membership in this body. You can worship and serve without being a member, but membership opens other doors (service as an elder, connections with other CPC bodies, denominational opportunities, and more). Sometimes, people think it’s a gotcha sort of deal. It’s not, but it does require you to think about how you respond to the love of God that we know in Christ Jesus. More to follow…

We are hosting the Red River Presbytery Fall Meeting this September. This is an excellent opportunity to meet others in the Presbytery and strengthen our connectional community. It is also a time to experience wonderful worship with fellow CPs.

As we prepare, we are seeking someone who can repair some pews (mostly the upholstery), do some yard work around the building, and complete some handyman-type work. We will also have some week-before and meeting-day duties in addition to the meal we serve our guests. See Kathy Stegall if you can help with these tasks.
