Announcements

Staunton Mennonite Church will not be holding Sunday School through the months of June, July, and August. Instead there will be a time of fellowship before the worship service from 10:00 – 10:25. Coffee and light refreshments will be served.

There will not be a Prayer Meeting this month.

The Gifts Discernment Committee will meet this Thursday at Kevin’s home, beginning at 6:00 pm.

You are invited to attend the play “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised]” July 29 and 30 at Eastern Mennonite High School, beginning each night at 7:00. Tickets are $8 at the door. Please see Leah Huyard for more information.

Please pray for:

• An end to the hatred, violence, and killings in our country and around the world.
• Those who are traveling over the summer break.

 


Luke 11:2, “He said to them, ‘When you pray, say:
“‘Father,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come.’”
