Dear Fourth Church,

What a rich blessing on recent Sundays to gather in greater numbers and worship our great God and King together! A handful of late-breaking items to highlight this morning:

  • Family Room | Starting this Sunday, we will offer the Welcome Center space opposite the Main Office as a "Family Room" for parents with young children. We treasure the presence of children in worship, yet we know that little ones may need to vocalize or move about during the service and sermon. Feel free to visit the Family Room where you can continue to follow the service via livestream and care for your child for a time. If you are new to Fourth, ask an usher to direct you.
  • Youth Ministry Calendar | The Youth Ministry has an active summer planned, and you'll find updated information in today's ministry announcements.
  • Women’s Book Clubs | The three different Book Clubs that run Tuesdays, June 22–July 27, will all meet at the church at 7:00 p.m. Details and registration on the Women's Ministry page.
  • Sanctuary Renewal | Learn more about plans to renew our primary place of worship at Town Hall Meetings this summer. First date: Sunday, June 20, 9:00–9:25 a.m., and 10:30–10:55 a.m., Room 131.
  • Drive-Through Collection & Food Drive | Lastly, don't forget the collection this Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., another opportunity to be salt and light in our community. Thank you for your faithful contributions to this work over many months.

Grace to you,

Don Nalle
Director of Communications
