YOU’RE INVITED
Dear Church Family,
We would like to invite you to a going away party for Becca Miller and Erin McCrite hosted by us, their parents, next Sunday, August 17th from 4 to 7 p.m.. This will be the last Sunday the girls will be with us before they make their first move away from home to attend Pt. Loma Nazarene University. Because you are our family, we’d love for you to be with us for the send off. We’ll have hamburgers, hotdogs, and the “fixin’s” to go along with it. Feel free to bring a swimsuit and towel, as well, if you would like to swim. The party will be held at the Miller’s home at 2193 E. Kempton Rd. in Chandler. –Mary Miller and Bruce & Connie McCrite

SUNDAY SCHOOL / SMALL GROUPS…
MAKING A CONNECTION
Sunday School and small groups are great ways to dig deeper into study and provides a wonderful opportunity to get to know people in a small group setting.
Adult Sunday School Classes. We presently have three great Adult class options you can attend that begin each Sunday morning at 9:30!
The Pacesetters, led by Jim Cullumber, are meeting in Room B of the Fellowship Hall (East of the Sanctuary). This class is involved in a Bible study of Nehemiah.
New Beginnings, taught by Bruce and Terri Larson, meets in Room C of the Fellowship Hall (East of the Sanctuary). The class is currently studying a book entitled, "Understanding Bible Prophecy for Yourself", written by Tim LaHaye.
The Journey is co-
Youth Sunday School Classes. Our youth presently meet in Room A of the Fellowship Hall (East of the Sanctuary).
UPDATE: Adult Bible Study at the Hickeys. We would love for those who are interested in a Bible study to join our group. We start at 6:30 p.m. and it usually lasts about one hour. We also have a time of prayer. We meet in our Outback room. We will be taking a break during the remainder of August, but plan to resume again next month. –Leaders Mike and Sandra Hickey
Adult Women’s Bible Study. The study will resume in September and will begin the
study of II Corinthians. If you would like a study book ($15), please contact the
church office by phone or e-
CHILDREN’S MINISTRY
Preschool Children’s Church uses Worship Time to reinforce what they have learned about God through their Sunday School classes. Children will be ready for a parent or guardian to pick them up in their classroom, Room #1A, following the service.
Elementary Children’s Church. Our children are learning about some of our favorite hymns… what they mean and their history. They will be leading one in the service today. Children will be ready for a parent or guardian to pick them up in Fellowship Hall Room D following the service.
