SUMMER OASIS FOR WOMEN ON JULY 13

Guest speaker Rachel Bush invites all women to Summer Oasis, THIS WEDNESDAY, JULY 13. Grab a friend and join her in the Gathering Place at 6:35pm for desserts, fellowship and a great message. This is a free event and no event registration is necessary.

Women are uniquely gifted in the area of beauty, but we are often trapped by it as well. Guest speaker Rachel Bush will help us better connect with true beauty in ourselves, in our lives and in our Savior...and sidestep the landmines of insecurity, superficiality and fear. When we can trust the beauty that our Creator has wrought in us, we are better equipped to see beauty in all of life--even the pain and trials we experience.

WHAT MY 12-YEAR-OLD

SON TAUGHT ME ABOUT WORS HIP

by Ed Stewart, Shandon Member

Drew has started to attend worship with us at 10am. The first time he did it, I noticed he sang really loud. Not inappropriate, just full-voiced...and pretty much off key. I found myself being embarrassed and I asked him not to sing so loud. He looked up at me with a look of true hurt...

YOUNG PROFESSIONALS CLASS SERVES AT THE COOPERATIVE MINISTRY

*A post from James Roberts' blog

The missions ministry at Shandon looks for ways to bless our partners, and this past month, one of our Sunday School classes stepped up to help at Cooperative Ministries. They were in need of some new paint on walls to help the place brighten up a bit. The Young Professionals class took time out of their week to volunteer.
