Check out “Ask the Pastor” on Wednesday, June 30th at 2:00 pm. (TCT Network and Dish Network channel 26, DirecTV does not carry the program), as Derek tries to make good use of this special opportunity. “Ask the Pastor” is a live call-in program with a panel of five area Senior Pastors answering viewer questions about life and the Bible from the Bible.

Next Sunday we will celebrate the Lord’s Supper. If you would like to participate but are unable to be here, see Derek or one of the Elders to arrange another time. Don’t be shy about taking full advantage of this important gesture of unity with Christ and his body.

If you are planning to attend this year’s CCCC National Conference in Springfield, Mass., and are interested in serving as one of two lay delegates, see Derek.
