DESSERT NIGHT
6.23. Join us at Kim Eide's home in West End for a dessert and wine potluck. Sign up sheet and more info will be on the church email soon. Another great opportunity to invite friends or just meet new women in the church.
PONCE WOMEN SUMMER WORKOUTS
Every Wednesday at 10am until July 24th. Macy will be teaching a 45 minute, no equipment barre-inspired workout. Just bring a yoga mat! If you don't have one, we'll have extras. We'll have childcare for $18 an hour (no matter how many kids you bring) or free some weeks if we have volunteers. This is low-impact and all levels are welcome! Definitely sign up in advance if you'll need childcare. This is a low-stakes opportunity to invite friends and nonbelievers to come with you to the church.
DONUTS IN THE PARK
7.20. Let's have a short hangout from 9:30am-11am at the new Westside Park. There's plenty of parking and a cool playground and walking paths. Macy's bringing donuts, but looking for 1-2 other volunteers who would also like to bring donuts, baked goods, or coffee!

GREETINGS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
PASTORAL PRAYER
Scripture | John 15:1-11
I Am the True Vine
15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. 11 These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
