You are invited to our summer events specifically for women. Enjoy fellowship, refreshments and encouragement as we find connection and transformation together. Mark your calendars. Contact Julia Metcalf or Sarah Savage in the church office for more information. And save the date for Mondays this fall when we begin a weekly Bible study that will provide connections to God’s word, each other and the church.

Please join us as Dr. Jim Miller shares his personal testimony of how Jesus Christ has been at work in and through his life. To watch all four of the 2022 testimonies as they are added, visit FirstChurchTulsa.org/GlimpsesofGrace22.

Come join us for an hour of visuals and personal reflections on First Church's most recent journey to the Holy Land. There were any number of remarkable and insightful moments and a few miracles along the way! That we'd love to share with the larger church. As a celebration of the Lord's goodness, we'll all enjoy a "Magnum Bar" dessert. If you'd like to sponsor a young person to go on the next journey to the Holy Land, please make out your check to First Church, with this notation: pilgrimage fund or you may give online at FirstChurchTulsa.org/give and designate youth Israel trip fund.

Containers will be placed in the Atrium. Please help by contributing household supplies such as Windex, disinfectant wipes, toilet paper, paper towels. Find additional information online.

Denise Rounds leads this no homework study as you will complete the work in the classroom together. It’s a welcoming time for those who have never done inductive Bible study as there is conversation focused on the text before us as we work through it together. We highlight keywords in the text and discuss what we understand the text to say relating it to our faith walk. It’s a comfortable level of study and promotes much camaraderie.

Join Rev. Wambugu Gachungi for this Bible study which reviews and discusses the sermon series.

The First Church Session has called a congregational meeting for Sunday, June 26, at 12:15 p.m. in the Sanctuary. The purpose of the meeting will be to act upon the recommendation of the Associate Pastor Nominating Committee to call Ms. Julia Metcalf to serve this congregation in the role of an associate pastor. We believe the Lord calls men and women into pastoral ministry, and does so through the voice of the congregation. We look forward to this next step in the call process. Please join us at 12:15 p.m. on Sunday, June 26, in the Sanctuary for this important meeting.
