First United Sunday Update May 29, 2022

Our Vision Statement: We are a welcoming community FIRST UNITED in proclaiming FAITH in Jesus Christ, sharing HOPE for the future, and inspiring LOVE of our neighbors.

Sunday Morning Recap This morning (5/29), we celebrated Ascension Sunday and discovered how Jesus can lift us up when we are feeling low. We also remembered our veterans on this Memorial Day weekend. If you weren't able to join us, you can watch a recording of the 9am service whenever you want on our website or on our Facebook page (*see links at bottom). After the service, we enjoyed our Coffee Fellowship Time with each other in the Family Life Center. Our kids also re-discovered the great play area in the other half of the room beyond the "grown up" tables. Please remember that our Sunday Bike Ride will not be happening today due to the holiday weekend, but will return next Sunday afternoon.

Our “Taking Faith Home” publication is a great resource for exploring your faith all through the week. It provides daily readings, prayers, devotions, and service opportunities following the weekly lectionary readings. Click here for this week's complete new edition.

Sharing the Love! Our next Agape Drive-Thru Dinner is coming this Wednesday (6/1) at 5:45pm. This month's menu will include bow tie pasta salad with chicken, grapes, poppy seed dressing, and cookies. Everyone's invited to drive though to pick up your free meals (*available while supplies last). Monetary donations are welcomed but not required. Invite others and help share the love!

Building a Life of Faith The Pentecost Offering is going on nationally right now. It unites churches of the PC(USA) in a church-wide effort to support young people in Christ and inspire them to share their faith, ideas, and unique gifts. Please donate generously through next Sunday (6/5). Find special envelopes at the church or go to www.presbyterianmission.org/give/pentecost for more details. Please contribute to help children at risk, youth, and young adults.
