Enthusiastic memory-verse reciters received stamps on their "passports" each day.
Dear families,

Our church was packed last week with VBS participants, volunteers of all ages and PresbyCampers too. Thank you to many (60+!) volunteers who made all run smoothly and together created a meaningful and joyful week for the children of our church and community. What a blessing! What a ministry! Thank you, Lord.


After last week, summer programming slows down a bit. But we still need adult volunteers each Sunday morning to assist (leaders are already scheduled) in summer church school. Many spots are open in August. Read below for details.

Finally, Take Home (or Away) Questions are listed through the end of August. Our hope is that these connect you to our church and faith no matter where summer travels take you.

In gratitude!
