1) Through our website (mylwlc.com).
2) Through the link in the weekly Highlights.
3) By scanning the QR code printed in the bulletin.
Thank you!
Adult Education and Sunday School will resume in the fall.

Youth Night
The youth (grades 6th-12th grade) will meet this Sunday, July 25th from 7-8:30 pm. We will have devotion, snacks and games. Bring your friends!

Texas Rangers Baseball Game
Youth grades 1-5 are invited to the Rangers game on July 28th. We will meet at the church at 5:30 and carpool to the park. The game starts at 7:05 and there is no cost for the trip. Please sign up by July 26th so that we can get tickets. As it is a late start, we plan on staying to the very end, so if you do not want your child out that late, please plan to pick them up at the park, or chaperone and take them home when you feel is appropriate. We will also need chaperones, so please sign up at mylwlc.com if you can.

College Connections
If you have a student heading off to college in the fall, please email the church at lwlc@lwlc.com their address so we can get them on the college connections mailing list to receive letters and care packages throughout the year from our Sunday School classes.
The Rock Speaks
We all want to trust in Jesus as our rock and salvation, and this study invites you to do exactly that! Based on 1 Corinthians 10:4 "All drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ." This 5 session study will explore sustenance, abundance, life, growth, and more.
July 29, August 12, 26 at 7pm.

Everyday Missionary Course
Join us for a five session course on becoming an everyday missionary. Learn to recognize where Jesus is already at work in your neighborhoods and workplaces, and gain the tools to join Him on His mission to reach the lost. Date, time and frequency of the sessions will be determined by the schedules of the participants. Led by Steve Burke.

LIFT (Ladies in Faith Together) Prayerbook
I love the Lord, because he has heard my voice and my supplications. Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live. (Psalm 116:1-2)
LIFT is creating a prayerbook as a resource for the women of LWLC. LIFTed in Prayer is a collection of our prayers covering the ins and outs of life. This is an opportunity to share in the beauty of our sisterhood as we lift together our prayers through different voices, in one body. If you would like to contribute a prayer, go to the LIFT page on mylwlc.com.

Meet for prayer weekly with your Christian brothers and sisters through Zoom. If you prefer not to pray out loud, you can still participate. Please include your availability and you will be notified by Pastor Malinak of the day and time of your weekly prayer group, and who your facilitator will be. Each session of prayer will last 15-30 minutes.
