We Can't Do Everything But We Can Do Something
St. Francis de Sales once said that "there is nothing small in the service of God.” With that in mind, go out and do some good this week, remembering that no amount of good is insignificant. Give your hands to serve, and your hearts to love!

Some of us will be helping stock shelves, some will be taking in donations from folks coming through the donation drive-thru, and some will be doing yard work outside. This project is for families with children in Emmaus Kids or Student Ministry. Parents will stay with children and serve alongside them.

The Afghan family we are helping through the Circle of Welcome program is getting ready to welcome their baby boy! He is due in October, but we suspect he will arrive earlier. When the family left Afghanistan, they were only able to bring a few things, so there are no hand-me-downs to give to this baby. If you're still looking for an opportunity to help out a family, please consider the Wasils. Julie Fear will arrive early on August 7th to collect whatever you bring and is also willing to stay late after service. Your items can be used, as long as they are in good condition. They are also in great need of a vacuum if anyone has one to spare. Follow this link for the fancy invitation to the "Baby Shower": https://bit.ly/3BaxfKi. If you need to get connected to Julie, please email Dylan.

Do Good Day is Saturday, August 20th from 8:00am - noon. We will be going out into the community to do some tangible, hands-on projects. The goal is that our church can get out and serve while we also accomplish efforts that will advance the missions of our partner organizations. We will only have the service project options for adults since family mission day takes place this month. Please register for Do Good Day here: https://bit.ly/3PQXMAd.
