BUGS, BUILDINGS, AND BUDGETS! |

Given the one-time financial needs of our congregation in 2022, we hope you will consider grabbing an envelope from our Bugs, Buildings, and Budgets board and donating to help support these projects at our church:
- Termite treatment in the Sanctuary
- Replacing air conditioners for our Children and Family Ministries!
Or you can give directly to these projects online.
- Click on the "Fund" window to see a drop-down menu
- Select: "Bugs, Buildings, and Budgets Special Offering"
- Complete the online giving form and complete the gift

Together, we can fully fund our 2022 budget and address the ongoing facility needs essential for our thriving ministries!
Thank you for your generosity and support!

We've made it halfway through of The Bible Year! As we move into our summer months, we encourage you to keep current with your readings. This month will see us finish Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon, and then begin the prophetic books: Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel, with Lamentations thrown in for good measure.
If you haven't joined The Bible Year email list, we encourage you to do so through the link below. You will receive occasional emails with further reflections on the scheduled readings, and links to some great teaching videos and messages to enhance your readings.
