SUMMARY:Serve Spotlight
DESCRIPTION:Serve Spotlight – Discover Your Joy in Serving\nOn Sunday\, August 24\, we invite you to take the next step in living out our church’s vision to Serve Joyfully. We’ll be hosting a Serve Spotlight just outside the Sanctuary after the 9am and 11am services. Join this focused and meaningful opportunity to connect with ministries that need your gifts and talents. \nYou’ll find three ministry tables\, each representing a unique way to make a difference in our church and community. Whether you have a heart for hospitality\, a talent for organizing\, or simply want to meet people and see where you might get involved\, this is your chance to explore where God may be calling you. \nServing isn’t just about filling a need—it’s about discovering joy. As our sermon that morning will remind us\, serving is one of the most powerful ways we can live out our faith\, grow in community\, and share God’s love in tangible ways. Even small acts of service can have a big impact\, both for those we serve and for our own spiritual growth. \nHere’s how you can participate: \n\nStop by the tables after worship on August 24.\nChat with ministry leaders and volunteers.\nAsk questions\, gather information\, and see where your skills might fit.\nTake the first step toward a joyful serving experience.\n\nIt’s a casual\, no-pressure environment—just a chance to explore\, be inspired\, and see how you might plug in. \nMark your calendar now! Don’t miss this simple but powerful opportunity to find your place in serving joyfully. \nEvent Details:\nDate: Sunday\, August 24\nTime: 10am & 12pm\nLocation: Outside the Sanctuary

SUMMARY:Teacher Blessing
DESCRIPTION:Back-to-School Teacher Blessing — Sunday\, August 10 \nWe believe that teaching is more than a job — it’s a calling that shapes the future. As a new school year begins\, we want to pause and lift up every teacher\, Sunday School leader\, school staff member\, and educator in our community. \nJoin us on Sunday\, August 10\, for a special Teacher Blessing during our service. Together\, we will pray for our teachers — for wisdom\, patience\, creativity\, and strength — as they step into classrooms\, hallways\, offices\, and playgrounds ready to make a difference. \nWhether you teach in a public school\, private school\, homeschool\, or lead one of our Sunday School classes\, we want you to know you are seen\, valued\, and supported. During the blessing\, each teacher and school staff member will receive a small gift as a token of our gratitude and a reminder that your church family is cheering you on throughout the year. \nWe invite every teacher to come and stand with us that Sunday — and if you know a teacher\, please invite them to attend. This is a wonderful moment for us to surround our educators with love and prayer as they prepare for the challenges and joys of a new academic year. \nLet’s come together as a church to remind these dedicated servants that they are not alone — we stand with them as they pour into the next generation.
