Special Guests Coming Sunday, July 17th:
On Sunday July 17th, in both services, we are excited to welcome Andy Collins, Executive Director of the Elkhart campus of Adult & Teen Challenge. The mission of this organization is to provide adult men an effective and comprehensive faith-based solution to life controlling problems in order that they may become productive members of society. Andy will be bringing several men who have been impacted by this ministry. You will not want to miss hearing them share how Jesus is changing lives in our communities! Following our 10:30am service we will be hosting the team for a carry-in meal. We invite NLF to bring a dish and share in this meal together. NLF will provide the meat and drink. Last names A-M please bring a side or salad; Last names N-Z please bring a dessert.
Meals of Hope:
A huge thanks to the many who have volunteered and/or donated food items for the Meals of Hope program. There is still an opportunity to help package meals. These meals feed youth within our community during the summer. Meals are packaged on Tuesday mornings, through August 2nd, starting at 7:30 am in LaGrange at The Garage. Packing takes approximately 2 hours and then the meals are delivered by other volunteers. Please contact Dawn Chirstner at 260-463-1170 if interested in volunteering to pack meals.
