Food donations during July will go to the Salvation Army.

The next Blood Drive will be tomorrow, July 12.  Volunteers are needed to help with setup, registration, tear down, and drivers.  A sign-up sheet is in the fellowship hall. If you are interested in donating blood, call the Red Cross at 1-800-733-2767 (1-800-RED-CROSS) for an appointment.

The church office will be closed Tuesday, July 13.

The next WMS meeting is this Thursday, July 15.  Nancy Troyer will be in charge of the kitchen and Madelyn Oswald will have devotions.  The project for July is school kits for MCC.

A big thank you to our trustees for all the work they have been doing in and around our church.  May they be blessed for sharing their time and talents to take care of our church building and grounds.

The Worship Commission is planning to have Locust Grove worship service at Amigo Pavilion on Aug. 1. There will be no Sunday school that morning and a fellowship meal after the service. Garry & Ruth Denlinger will be with us that morning and will give us an update on their work in Israel.  After the meal, Garry & Ruth will have time to share further regarding their work. We would encourage you to plan to stay and visit with them.

If you have musical abilities you would be willing to share with the congregation, please notify Pastor Matt, Kim Schwartz, Katrina Hasbrouck or Gerri Schwartz.

Amigo Centre is seeking its next Executive Director.  If you are interested, contact Amigo at 651-2811.  Please pray for the Board of Directors and staff as they continue to run programs and host guests.
