Weekly Update
Summer has flown by, and we are already gearing up for Fall activities. Kids are back in school this week and we are looking ahead to many great offerings for the Fall. This week we blessed our students, teachers and school workers with the Blessing of the Backpacks. We were able to pray that they step into their schools and bring the peace of Christ with them. Ms. Christy gave out wonderful tags to put on their backpacks that will help them remember their faith and calling. I am very excited about Wednesdays at Faith in this new season. We will have the chance to try something brand new that allows us to learn, share, and fellowship. We will begin on August 14th and there is a place for all ages. My hope is that this will be a great help to all, but that it will also be a place for those whom Sunday mornings are not always possible. I do have one piece of news that we need to be aware of going forward. Financially, we took a pretty big dip in giving in May and July. We are not sounding any alarms, but the Finance Team did ask me to make the church aware. We run on a pretty tight budget and these kind of dips can cause big problems if the trend continues. We are faithfully optimistic that the low months are anomalies, but we do ask all of you to keep it in prayer. On the positive side, our attendance continues to go up and we are seeing new faces each month. We will have a membership Sunday on August 11th and it is open to anyone who wants to join the church officially. I am looking forward to wrapping up our sermon series on the Beatitudes this Sunday as we look at what it is to suffer for our faith. In Him, Pastor Scott |
