Summer Events at Leidy’s Church
SLMT ’09 Continues
Raising Support
June is an
important month for the Leidy’s Church summer mission trip to Red Lake,
Ontario, and beyond. Plans for all facets of the trip are being
finalized.
In
consultation with Marvin Miller at the Stormer Lake Retreat Centre, the
specific task undertaken and its scope will be determined. Each team
will finalize the menu to be followed for the time in Canada – that is
an important issue! VBS workers will receive initial training from
Justine Smith in the various modules making up this year’s curriculum.
Also, team members who did not have valid passports initially anticipate
receiving their new passports during June.
The final
major factor for our summer mission project during June is the continued
raising of support. The payment for the buses is due June 16th
– it’s a mere 26K! We also need to send some American dollars to Red
Lake to pay for flights to and from the Reserves. So, SLMT team
members, be busily about the business of raising your support.
Supporters of SLMT team members, thank you for that support and pray for
all these ongoing facets that take place prior to the actual
mission trip. If you’re looking for someone to support, let Pastor
Niederhaus know and he’ll be glad to make arrangements for that to
happen!
Please keep
this yearly mission trip in your prayers as plans are being finalized
and necessary paperwork and materials are being gathered and packed.
Especially pray that we would be used by God to minister to His people.
Vacation Bible School –
Operation Space
August is
closer than you think! Register your children now for this year’s
Operation Space, where God’s truth is discovered. The dates are August 3
through 7 from 9 am to noon. Sign up sheets for the children and
volunteers are located on the Christian Ed table in the narthex. Help is
still needed, so be sure to check out the opportunities still available
for willing workers.
Planning on Some Shade
In the event
you’re wondering when our outdoor worship service (Sunday in the Shade)
happens in 2009, the date is set for August 9th. Hopefully
the VBS kids will do some special music for us that Sunday, since
Operation Space VBS ends the Friday prior to the service. Plan your
calendars accordingly, since we will have only one service of worship
that day beginning at 10 am, with lunch to follow. Details will be in
the July/August Newsletter.
For more information or
to register, call 215-723-8707 or e-mail leidyschurch@leidyschurch.org.
There is no fee to attend, but a free-will offering will be taken. Child
care will not be provided.
