Our mission: to be a sign of Christ’s love for the world. |

How wonderful to worship together in our sanctuary! As we adjust to sharing space again, please be mindful to the needs of those around us.
Out of love & safety for our youngest & most vulnerable, ALL worshipers are to wear masks while in the sanctuary.
As Matthew 7:12 says, "Treat others as you would want to be treated." Thank you for living in Christian love with one another!

Remember Your Church This Summer |
As summer fun and vacation draws us away from town and church, don't forget that our church is still in ministry in the community. We are still open and need your support. Your financial gifts are essential to the ministry and campus of Dilworth Church. Visit our website to make your contributions online or you can drop off your contributions and use other means of giving. Also, worship with us live on Facebook at 10 am even when out of town. Enjoy and find relaxation this summer. Thank you for sustaining the ministries of Dilworth Church through your gifts.

Dearest Sheri and Dilworth Prayer Shawl Ministry,
The prayer shawl was such as blessing to my mother Faye Robinson and our family. We did not know that you created each one, and the prayers reach the person they were meant for. You gave us a loving memory that meant the world to our mother and us during her last precious days. The words can't express our gratitude for the love and blessings you gave to each of us. May this love be returned to you tenfold, and may you continue to be blessed with God's grace.
With love and appreciation,
Cathy Mcdonald

This week's flowers are given in honor of the Dilworth Church ministers and staff in appreciation for your service and love by Barbara and Terry Scott. If you want to see these beautiful arrangements, make sure you watch the Worship service on Facebook Live. In addition to the calendar on Aisha’s office door, we’ve created a Sign-Up Genius to make it super easy to reserve a date to place flowers on the altar. Flowers on the altar make our worship more beautiful and alive. If you would like to use the church’s florist, The Blossom Shop, Aisha will be happy to call in the order for you. The standard seasonal arrangement they provide is $50 plus tax but will enhance it with specific flower and color requests for an additional cost. You can also bring in an arrangement from your garden, a market, or wherever you want to get them. We’ve got lots of available dates, so click here to sign-up for 2021, and let’s bring some of the beauty of God’s creation into our worship in the Sanctuary.

The brass flower urn for the sanctuary altar is missing. If anyone accidentally took it home with your flower arrangement, please return it to the church office. It would be greatly appreciated. |

SPARK volunteers - every Sunday at 10:00 am. Have you heard about some of the fun things we've been doing in SPARK Sunday School this summer? Acting, science experiments, art, Bible stories, prayer, and more! Volunteer to be a part of it and help our children build strong foundations of faith. Here's what some of our recent volunteers have said:
"Really glad you asked me to help because I don’t think it’s something I would have actively volunteered for on my own and I ended up really liking it! I really enjoyed the opportunity to help kids learn beyond my own children and had a lot of fun in the process." - Ryan Mills
"I thought it was a very fun and easy way to serve. It was also so heartwarming to see the children’s enthusiasm to learn about God." - Mariel Findlay
