TRANSCRIPT
Welcome! No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here!
We say every week is different at Shadow Rock so we hope you’ll come back and see what next Sunday is like. Please join us for Coffee Chat after worship today. We’re happy to talk with you about anything that’s on your mind! (Probably starting with, “What’s up with that funny-shaped cross?”) Pastor Ken would love to get to know you better— arrange a get-to-know-you coffee by emailing him via [email protected]. If you have special requests or needs, such as childcare, large-print bulletins, hearing-assistance devices, or alternative seating, please speak with an usher. They’re happy to help! Visit our website: www.shadowrockucc.org.
Today at Shadow Rock Greeters start things off right! Thanks to Bert O’Neill for greeting this morning.
Flowers on the communion table today are from the Reays, celebrating family birthdays.
All are welcome to join us after worship for Coffee Chat right here in Smith Hall. Our thanks to Beth Bruce for providing the cookies today.
Shadow Rock offers Sunday School classes for all ages at 9:00 a.m. Join us for opportunities to connect with one another and with our own experiences.
Celebrating Faith Formation: June 23 is our last week together at 9 o’clock. Adults are experimenting with how to tell stories in life giving ways. Children are making fairy bread (yum!). During this programming year, Shadow Rock learners have explored topics such as compassion and anti-racism. We’ve experienced pop culture and filmmaking as ways to help us think spiritually. It’s been a great year growing together.

Every gift, no matter the amount or when it is sent is greatly appreciated. I’m thankful for our entire Shadow Rock Family.
With gratitude to all of my Shadow Rock family, ~ Heidi

This year, we've spoken a lot about vision We are moving closer to discerning a new wedgeblade ministry together. Next week, you'll have access to a special workbook for you to complete over the July break. These are not for you to turn back in, but rather for your to use as a tool to organize your thoughts about your own journey, Shadow
Rock, and wedgeblade ministries.
After you complete the workbook during our July Sabbath, we invite you to bring your thoughts and take part in the meetings and discussions planned for August and September. We'll continue our congregation-wide discernment through the fall, and hope to arrive at our next wedgeblade ministry together in 2020.

What is Pick-A-Party? It's a fundraiser and
friend-raiser we hold every other year. At
Pick-A-Party, congregants "donate" a party by hosting some kind of event at their home
or other location. Then others can purchase
a spot at the parties they want to attend.
The church receives the money and we all have a blast with old and new friends!
The Party Board is in the parlor
beginning today! Stop by to get party
ideas, find co-hosts, and learn more.
