"LET US ENTERTAIN US"
That's the theme for the annual UMW Fun Lunch to be held on July 10 at 11 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall.
All women of the church and their guests are invited. Highlights include a delicious lunch with piano background music, followed by a skit or two and musical entertainment, including the debut performance of our very own Fun Lunch Bunch. There is no cost for the lunch (donations accepted), but we do ask that you call the church office at 235-5676 to let us know you're coming, so we can plan the menu accordingly.
Please plan now to attend!

2nd Wind
The Clabber Girl Museum, Candles Holocaust Museum, and the Traverse Bay Pie Co. in Terre Haute are on the agenda for July's activity! Lunch will be at the Clabber Girl Museum. This activity will be Saturday, July 14 and departure is 9:00 a.m. The cost is $10 which covers the admission and transportation. The sign-up sheet is hanging next to the Welcome Desk. There is also a sign-up sheet for August's event as well.

Cornerstone café
In the past 2-3 years, we have had several people who have had to opt out of being a Cornerstone Café cook due to health or age reasons. Some of the past Cornerstone Café cooks have stepped up to fill in these gaps by saying they would be glad to prepare or buy items for the Cornerstone Café twice in a 3 month period of time. However, it is now time to ask for some new people to come forward to help supply the weekly Sunday 'goodies' that are at the Cornerstone Café upstairs every Sunday. If you like to bake, please contact Bev Dennis (235-1859) so she can add you to the list and tell you a little more about this ministry of and to the church.

Keeping up with Mike and Jordan
Jordan is taking a vacation Sunday this weekend to go on a camping trip with his family.
The week was pretty routine for Pastor Mike, a mix of administrative work, sermon preparation, meetings, and conversations with people.
