From Pastor Ben:
Hi Hope Family,
It’s been a busy week at Hope as the staff and several volunteers have been preparing for VBS. Thanks to all those who have volunteered to serve! It’s great to see so much buy-in from you as a church. VBS begins on Sunday and it goes through Thursday. It will be in the evenings from 6:30-8pm. Please remember to keep VBS in prayer!
As you step into church on Sunday you will see displays and decorations that are set up for VBS. Because of all the displays in the Sanctuary, we will not be serving communion at either worship service this Sunday. We will have communion next Sunday (August 8) at both worship services. Thanks for your understanding as we make these changes in order to support VBS.
We have two weeks left in our sermon series on 1 John. Our text for this Sunday is 1 John 5:1-12. Verse three of our text says, “For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.” Did you catch that? God’s commandments are not burdensome. Practically, what does that look like and mean for us in our everyday lives? That’s the question we will be trying to answer this week as we talk about what it means for us to live with Gospel confidence.
Hope you have a great rest of your week!
In Christ,
-Pastor Ben
