‍Greetings friend,
 
Vacation Bible School is almost here! 50% more kids have signed up from our community this year so it will be our largest VBS ever. Praise God! We’re looking for a few more adults to oversee the groups (no teaching required) and to just keep a guard out for them. Just imagine, for a moment, dozens of these kids hearing that Jesus loves them and wants them to come to Him, and them responding by giving their hearts and lives to Him!150 children from surrounding communities will hear the story of the Gospel in a clear and age-appropriate presentation led by our own Steve Bender! Please be in prayer. It all begins this coming Monday at 9am!
 
This Sunday we’ll be in Luke 18. The story of the Rich Young Ruler always grabs me. A young man with so much ahead of him. He had time, talent, and treasure. He was known for his character and belief in God. But one thing was keeping him from salvation…
