The Bearing Fruit
July 20, 2014



Our Church

Happy Birthday to:  Eugene Engel (7/16),
Kendra Bruegge (7/19)

Offering for 7/6/2014:  $2,737.00 (regular)

Everyone is invited to stay for a potluck meal following Sunday School this morning.  This potluck will give us all additional time to visit with Jerry and learn what has been happening in his and his family’s life.

Young people (grades K-6) are invited to Washington Mennonite’s Vacation Bible School on August 9th and 10th!  Come to learn about God, The Good Shepherd and have lots of fun.  On August 9th we’ll meet at church from 9:15-3:30, and then on August 10th we’ll have a picnic/swimming party at Crooked Creek Camp following the church service.  Call Amanda (319.325.4522) for more information, or see Mary Lou to pick up a postcard.


Central Plains Conference

The Sower Prayer Request:  Tim Detweiler is speaking this week at Cheyenne Mennonite Family Camp near Lame Deer, Montana.  Pray for Tim and for all those attending the camp.


Mennonite Agencies


Mennonite Mission Network Prayer Request:  The South Africa and Paraguay Radical Journey teams will arrive in Chicago tomorrow for four days of re-entry sessions.  Pray for discernment during this time of debriefing and preparation for returning to their home communities and what comes next in their lives.

Prayers for faith and learning:  Pray for Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary professors who spend the summer months exploring new research and beginning new projects.  May the Spirit guide their study to inspire them and contribute to God’s mission in the world.



Area Events

Polen in Concert:  Polen will be in concert at Lower Deer Creek Mennonite Church on Saturday July 26th at 7pm.  Polen is a 5-piece Christian electronic rock and worship band from Fredericksburg, OH.  With electrifying walls of guitar, pulsating rhythms, and pensive lyrics, Polen creates a sound that is deeply worshipful, always melodic.  For more information contact Jim Hershberger at jhershberger32 at gmail.com or 319.461.3847.
