Speaking this week is Simon Liversidge, our Lead Pastor, on "The Kingdom of Heaven." Jesus tells parables as they are familiar stories that invite His listeners to reflect on new insight. In Matthew 13, Jesus tells parables about the Kingdom of Heaven, which also reveal His understanding of heaven. He reveals three truths: the kingdom of heaven is forged in humility, flourishes in humanity, and lasts forever but starts now. 

Everyone is invited to attend the All-Church potluck hosted by Trista Ybarra’s team. Come and enjoy delicious food and engaging conversations. Visitors are encouraged to come as our guests. Members, please contribute 2-3 dishes per family.

Upcoming potlucks:
July 18 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Gerrie Eddy’s team
July 25 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Terrie Bartzatt’s team
August 1 - Forks and Friendship hosted by Janya Mekelburg’s team
August 8 - All Church potluck hosted by Linda Becker’s team

CANVAS meets again this Sabbath at 6pm in the Well as we continue season 3, "Walking with the Son: Common Table." We will continue to explore what it means to remain in Jesus — living, listening, and moving with Him in community. Come see how God will speak to our community next, and bring a friend. 

Vespers at Woodland Acres is this Sabbath, July 11, with Pastor Simon as our speaker. Come join us where its a little cooler, quieter, and greener. We will also have cold drinks to share with everyone who attends. (The next WA vespers is July 25 with Pastor Cameron) All are welcome!

Prayer Focus: "There is no limit to the usefulness of one who, putting self aside, makes room for the working of the Holy Spirit upon his heart and lives a life wholly consecrated to God.” (In The Spirit and Power, pg. 17, Pavel Goia) Our prayer for you, church family, is that we may be baptized afresh with the Holy Spirit and reflect the character of Jesus. May that be our desire. Send your prayer requests & praises to Dina Horst at 402.420.5970. Thank you!
