The Week Ahead and Beyond
This Sunday is the Seventh Sunday After Pentecost. Linda has returned from General Assembly and her message will be “For the Healing of the Nations”. Liz Warriner will sing "How Can I Keep from Singing?" as the offering of music. We will celebrate communion and collect our 2 Cents A Meal offering. After worship, we will enjoy lemonade on the lawn.
Financial reports for the second quarter will be sent this week.

A Throwback in Time The youth of Northside gathered on the steps outside the nursery on Easter Sunday in 1993. How many remember and can identify these cute kids, who are now in their 30s and 40s? A larger image with a key is on the church website. |

Directory Update
Work to produce an updated directory continues. The corrections and updates that were made on paper last month have been incorporated into the database. Email was sent last week to a number of members and friends who haven't updated their information. If you received this email, please respond by July 79 with changes and updates or "it's all good" to confirm receipt. A draft version of the directory will be released in about two weeks for review.
