Greetings!
Summertime arrives,
days lengthen in the sun,
Warmth, joy, and light
we find in the Eternal One.
Summer now it is,
the Son shines on you, on me;
Summer now it is,
Christ's glory we do see.
from "Summer Son-Shine" by Caroline Gavin
Now on with the news!

Ah, the 80’s. Who doesn't fondly look back on the days of Rubik’s Cubes, the Walkman, Cabbage Patch Dolls, and Valley Girls in big hair and leg warmers? Like, totally! Ok, maybe not that fondly. Anyway,
if you were active in GCS at Our Savior’s in the 80’s, from '83-'86, check this out!
We are having a GCS Reunion for kids and leaders who went on tours 1983 - 1986. We’ll be sharing photos and memories on Saturday, July 28, from noon - 5 p.m., at Our Savior’s. Please bring something to share at the potluck and blankets or travel chairs, in case we move outdoors for extra seating. If you can, please bring a donation for the very busy food pantry. Parking is limited, so please carpool if possible. Please pass this along to others who might want to attend. Contact Shelley Zoller at 503-781-7123 with questions or if you can help with set-up and/or clean-up.

School is out in Haiti and the children await anxiously all summer to see if their sponsorships will be renewed. Those who didn't get to attend this year also wait hopefully for someone to make it possible for them to go to school as well.
If you haven't renewed you sponsorship yet please do so. And if you would like to give another child an opportunity for a lifetime improvement,in addition to food, clothing, a hot meal everyday, medications and a Christian education, please consider starting a new sponsorship now. The cost to sponsor a child is $384. If you are not able to sponsor a child but would still like to help, you may make a contribution to OSLC to help cover the costs of the 10 children sponsored by Our Savior's.
The program needs time to procure the children's uniforms, materials, etc., and it is so helpful to do that over the summer so the children can start right away in the fall.
If you have questions or need help, contact Patti Ryall, 503 312 2040 or
rypattihotmail.com.
Thank you.

Summertime is when many of us are away from church visiting family, vacationing and enjoying our beautiful weather. Just because you are away from home doesn't mean you have to miss out on Pr. Kim's inspiring weekly messages. Each week we record the sermon and make it available to you as a podcast. This gives you a regular dose of inspiration that you can easily incorporate into your busy life on your desktop, laptop or phone.
Each week you'll find inspiring and positive messages that will uplift and inspire you throughout the week.
