WE WANT TO THANK YOU for your attendance and participation at our congregational meeting last Sunday. Thank you for the questions that were asked and the feedback that was received. The consistory had determined to look for a 2/3 majority for the position to be approved. The votes reached this mark so the addition of a worship leader to the staff was approved. The consistory will work to hire someone in this role and will communicate again once a candidate is hired.
WE WANT TO THANK Ron Owsley for leading our Prayer Meeting/Bible Study on Sunday evenings. We are going to stop for the summer and continue when Sunday School starts.
FELLOWSHIP COMMITTEE: The next Fellowship Committee meeting will be on July 9.

When an invitation shows up in your box and you are able to make it, join the fun! If not, catch the next one. Please remember to let the hosts know so they can plan accordingly.

“I AM SO GRATEFUL for the folks of ARC as they are valued members of my support team! Thank you for your faithful financial and prayer support! I am also thankful for the gift, $400, given last month. May the Lord continue to bless you! In another week I will be involved in the summer camps which are held on a farm. Pray for good weather and for the Lord to work in the lives of the young people who come along to the camps. Right now we are enjoying a normal Irish summer with temperatures in the mid-60's to low-70's. In our Saviour's love, Jessie Van Schepen”
