I hope your family is staying cool and avoiding the heat! Just a reminder, this Sunday (June 27^th) will be the first week we will start our Sunday morning with a time of family worship in the main auditorium. After worship, the kids will be excused to their classes. There will be Children’s Ministry volunteers standing to the side of the auditorium with signs for the different classes. Please have your preschool and elementary children go to the volunteers who will then escort them to their class. Parents are required to walk their nursery aged children, birth to 3 years old, to the nursery.

This week in Children’s Ministry we will be in 1 Samuel 4-6 learning how God showed the Philistines that He is the one true God after they had taken the Ark of the Covenant from Israel. If you are unable to attend in-person service, you can find the video lesson online anytime on our Kids and Families Resource Page, on our Greater Portland Bible Church App or on Sunday morning at 8 AM on the GP Kids Facebook Group page.

Christ Connection this Sunday: The ark of God reminded the Israelites that God was with them. Years later, God gave His people something greater than a sign that He was with them; God gave them His Son, Jesus—God in the flesh. One of Jesus’ names is Immanuel, which means “God with us.”

I pray for God’s protection over your family during this heat wave and I look forward to seeing you at church!

God Bless,
Sally Bland
