---------------------------------------- This Sunday, we're eating together at Doug and Kari's! They will provide smokies, hot dogs, buns, condiments, and drinks. If people could bring a salad or dessert, that would be awesome! Some folks can bring chairs, but they have a few of those already. Hot tub is available for kids if they want (but must be supervised by parent). Also, if someone wants to bring a second cornhole, that would be great. If it rains, we will plan to pivot as they don't have enough space indoors, so stay tuned for an email tonight! If folks can let us know if you are planning on coming, that would be helpful for numbers.

This week, we're going to continue our summer discussion of the book of Acts. Zach and Jaclyn will be leading us through Acts 6:1-8, 15, 54-59, which talk about Stephen and the Spirit. As usual, things will get going around 11am at Carmel. There will also be an activity for kids in Grade 5 and under.

This Sunday, we will be continuing to talk about the book of Acts in the summer format, which tends to be chill, lowkey, and informal (as opposed to the extremely formal approach we all typically tend to). The focus this week is on Acts 4:5-20 (and perhaps also 4:23-35 -- and maybe even Acts 19:1-7... See? That's what informality looks like...). Kids will be doing an activity! (Also, if you would like to help out with kids over the summer, let Ruth know!)

School's out for summer... And that means that we're going to be shifting gears and getting started with a more laid back, discussion-driven format over the next couple of months. This summer, we're going to be looking at the book of Acts together. The first session is happening this Sunday, July 5. We'll be meeting at Carmel at 11am. There will be an activity for kids in Grade 5 and under.

This Sunday, it's Word Sunday! Doug will be wrapping up our series about the Holy Spirit by talking about the Spirit and the kingdom of God. Sunday school will be happening downstairs for kids in Grade 5 and under. Youth in grade 6 and up will be in the library with Sherah.
