Guess Who's Coming to Lunch
Last chance this Sunday to sign up to go and have lunch and fellowship with your church family on Sunday, June 7th, after the service. You can sign up as an attendee or as a host. As an attendee, you’ll offer to bring a contribution toward the food- a main, a side dish, or a dessert. As a host, you’ll welcome people into your home as many as you can accommodate. The fun is that, while you’ll know who your host is and their address, you won’t know who you’re going to have lunch with! So sign up today!.

Chapter Chat - Women's Book Club
A group of women from our church have formed a book club, and we warmly invite you to join us. Meeting in one another’s homes every couple of months on Saturday mornings, we enjoy coffee, conversation, and plenty of laughter as we share reflections and discuss theology. Chapter Chat is a space not only for thoughtful discussion but also for friendship—a place where we can grapple with ideas together, ask questions, and gently challenge one another’s perspectives as we grow in understanding and faith.
Our next book will be Prayer by Timothy Keller
Prayer is central to Christian faith; indeed, as Timothy Keller notes in his introduction, it is the main way we experience deep change. Yet so many people struggle with prayer - a struggle that the author himself has shared. This wise and inspiring book is the fruit of those struggles, offering a real and glorious vision of what it can mean to seek God in prayer.
Keller begins by giving a theological underpinning of what prayer actually is - both conversation and encounter with a personal God - before describing how we can learn to pray, and then deepen that prayer. Finally, he gives detailed, practical suggestions on how to make prayer a part of the reality of daily life
