Join us for our Adult Summer Sunday School beginning on June 4 as we study The Work of Christ. We continue the lessons of the past four summers on the attributes of God and the Holy Spirit as we explore the Trinity. Last summer we looked at the Person of Christ. Just as it is important for us to understand who Christ is, it is also important for us to understand what Christ has accomplished.

We will look at the work of Christ as he walked the earth when the Word became flesh and dwelt among us as well as what he does on our behalf as the ascended Lord. This summer will be a great opportunity for us to deepen our knowledge of the Lord and to grow in our relationship with him.

The 2017 Tijuana Mission Team is busy making final preparations for their trip in early July. Some of you have already donated soccer cleats, and if anyone else would like to donate gently used soccer cleats, we would gladly welcome those. This year's team is composed of 20 total members: 13 of those are from First Presbyterian (the Earnest family, the Robinsons, and the McClains), 3 are from Three Rivers Community Church, and 3 are from New Armuchee Baptist Church, and one is from Kentucky.  

The team is planning to make beds and deliver to homes, and FPC member Aline Heiser has been busy preparing some special art work to be used on the beds. The mission team will also be hosting a youth event, and the FPC VBS children will be donating funds that go towards the bed project as well as the purchase of clay for a pottery event that will be part of the youth activities. There will be women's ministry with Bible studies and candle-making, and the mission team plans to take a group of 50 children to a trampoline park. There will be special drama performed by the youngest members of the FPC mission team, and they will all be able to contribute to helping serve meals to special groups at the church in Tijuana. We would like to request prayers for safe travels, an experience where our team learns something new, and a time where we can encourage the local body of believers at Centro Shalom in Tijuana, Mexico.
