Prayer Update
Carol Wyngarden visited the urology doctor on Tuesday, July 7th. The doctor was very pleased that she is making excellent progress in recovering her strength. Carol is gradually lengthening her walks outside. Wound drainage has stopped. The doctor said that given her progress it is time to decide on further treatment. She has an appointment on July 13th with the multi-specialty team to determine what further treatment should happen and when it should happen depending on her strength and all the other factors.
Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you. 1 Peter 5:7 (TLB)

Our July Mission of the Month is World Renew. World Renew embraces a family-centered approach to ending global poverty with food security, peace, and justice, economic livelihood, and health. We join families in more than 30 developing countries to change global hunger, poverty, and illness. Their community development includes clean water, healthy children, nutritious food, and access to education.
BASEMENT PROJECT APPEAL: Thank you to those that have given toward the ServPro bill and new carpet. We are still a long way from covering this unexpected expense. This fundraiser will run through the end of the month.
Below is the original notice:
The basement flooding has caused an unexpected financial expense for 2020. Our insurance policy has a $10,000 flood damage limit, and the total cost for ServPro restoration and carpet replacement for church and the parsonage exceeds $50,000. If you would like to contribute towards this $40,000 need, please send in checks or Venmo funds with "Basement Project" in the memo line. We expect work to be done in late July or early August, so this fundraiser will run from now until July 31st. Please remember this should only be given in addition to your general fund gifts as we need to meet our operational obligations as well. Thank you for considering giving to this cause. Any questions can be addressed to Jodi Deur, Chair of Finance.
