July Bulletin

 

This Is America

This is America, the land of the free

A country men founded for true liberty

A nation created for all of the best

B y those who were able to face every test

Their hands were not idle, their backs bent with toil

They hewed out the forest & tended the soil

All their trust was in God, their faith was secure

Their courage & honor were steadfast & sure

They built America with strength from above

This nation we cherish, the land that we love

Rotating Potluck

We once again encourage everyone to participate in Rotating Potluck.  Even if you only sign up for one or two months, it will be an opportunity to spend time in fellowship with different people throughout the year.  Relationships grow when we break bread with one another.  There are questionnaires available at the message center at church. Please fill out the form & return it by the date specified if you are interested in participating.  Thanks!

 

Thank You

We would like to express our appreciation to all of our church family for the deeds of kindness shown to us during our father’s illness & death.  We are so grateful for the many thoughts, phone calls, cards, helping hands, meals, & prayers on our behalf.  We truly felt God’s love through all of you.  We love you all & pray that God will bless you for your love shown to us.

In His Love, The Chuck Sauder Family
