On Sunday, July 24th we will have an official welcome for Katie Sample as our new Children’s Ministry Directory. During the service we will all have an opportunity to affirm her gifts and the start of her ministry with us. After the service we will celebrate together with a cupcake reception. Cards and notes of congratulations are welcome.
All are welcome to join Tabatha for a tour and discussion of the Johnson County Museum exhibit, “Redlined:Cities, Suburbs, and Segregation” on Tuesday, July 26th at 10:00 am. The tour will be led by a representative from the museum. The exhibit “takes visitors on a deep dive into the history of redlining and how it both shaped and was shaped by Johnson County and the region. Visitors will learn about the 19th and 20th century foundations of redlining, how the private practice became federal policy during the Great Depression, the expansion of the practice during postwar suburbanization, attempts to dismantle the system during the Civil Rights Era, and how the legacies of redlining continue to impact communities around the nation today.”
Tickets will be around $10 per adult (regular ticket plus group tour ticket.) After our tour we will gather at First Watch to discuss what we experienced during this time and learned from the exhibit. All ages are welcome.
Join us at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, July 3rd in person or streaming live on Facebook, as we begin our new sermon series, I’ve Been Meaning to Ask….
How can we listen to one another and create space that is compassionate and holy, and also recognize that we’re not all in the same place emotionally or spiritually?
Being a faithful community, being a faithful person can be challenging. It takes courage and intentionality to create space where we can listen to one another’s needs and hurts. We don’t always know how or where to begin. But if we begin in the heart—we are reminded of that we can care for one another though our vulnerability and courage in asking simple, yet compassionate questions.
Join us in the next five weeks as we ask one another how we can be community together by saying, “I’ve been meaning to ask…”

Join us at 10:00 am in person or streaming live on Facebook, as we finish our sermon series, Dancing with the Spirit. On Sunday we will discuss Dancing with the Spirit: From Opening Night to a Lifetime Run (Galatians 5:22-26).
What does it look like when the Holy Spirit is in our lives? Does that mean we are superhuman Christians, or just still regular folks with the same old problems? If the Spirit is, indeed, influencing our lives, then does that change how we live our lives and the choices we make? This week we’re exploring together what it looks like when the Spirit is in us and what that could mean…

Join us at 10:00 am in person or streaming live on Facebook, as we continue our sermon series, Dancing with the Spirit. On Sunday we will discuss, Dancing with the Spirit: Learning the Steps (Isaiah 61:1-4, 8)
As followers of God we want to know that our lives serve a purpose…but often we’re unsure of what that purpose is. How does the Holy Spirit guide us in finding our purpose and what could it be? Does the Spirit have expectations of how we live our life and the choices we make in it?

Join us at 10:00 am in person or streaming live on Facebook, as we continue our sermons series, Dancing with the Spirit. On Sunday we will discuss, Dancing with the Spirit: Holding the Count. When we want to know answers to tough questions, make decisions, or know how to help others we often turn to prayer as a way to find what we need. Why do we pray and what do we hope to gain from prayer? Is prayer an action or a pause? What if we don’t know how to pray or what to even pray for—do those prayers count with God? Does the Holy Spirit guide us in those prayers, or hear those prayers, or answer those prayers?
We can’t wait to worship with you on Sunday!
