How can it be August already? Okay, that's a rhetorical question. This year is flying by.
We are continuing the
Lion King series this week. Have you taken a photo at Pride Rock yet? Taylor Ory held up his "Simba" last Sunday.
Gather the family and take a photo. It might be the perfect photo for your Christmas cards. And Christmas will be here before you know it.
Enjoy this First Church news.

What a great mission project!
Children’s offerings this summer will go to support e-NABLE, an amazing group of individuals from all over the world who are using their 3D printers to create
free 3D printed hands and arms for children in need of an upper limb assistive device. Teams of volunteers use 3D printers to print out the plastic parts needed to build a prosthetic hand. A supply kit, costing $20, is also needed to complete the prosthetic.

Many of our recent high school graduates are heading off to college soon, along with those already enrolled in college, and we like to send them some First Church love through our Church Mouse program. If you are a college student, please
sign up for the church mouse program by August 24.

It's time to sign up for Kids of the Kingdom Chimes. Fall semester begins August 19.
Kids of the Kingdom Chimes welcomes children entering grades 3 -- 5 who would like to ring hand chimes. Playing hand chimes is a wonderful opportunity for your child to learn to read music and ring. No experience is necessary. We will play in church 1-2 times per semester and a have a recital at the end of each semester.

In the Alleluia Chorus, our elementary students (grades K – 5) learn the skills of singing and music reading while they sing anthems of their own as well as join with the Choral Union in joint choral presentations. These early experiences create wonderful memories of joyful musical events linked with the worship of God—thus building the foundation for a walk with Christ.
