Father’s Day

This coming Sunday, we joyfully celebrate Father’s Day, a special time to honour and appreciate the fathers and father figures in our lives. As we gather for worship, we reflect on the vital role they play in our families and commun-ities, providing guidance, support, and love.

In Proverbs 20:7, we read, “The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.” This verse reminds us of the enduring impact of a father’s faithfulness and integrity. Let us take this opportunity to give thanks for the fathers among us, lifting them up in prayer and offering our heartfelt gratitude.

We invite all fathers to join us for the Father’s Day worship service. The church has something special for you—Titus Bakery Gift Certificate for a doughnut and a small cup of coffee.

Last Voting Chance for Photo Contest

Coming Sunday is the last chance to vote for the Photo Contest. The winner will be announced during the Worship in the Park on the following Sunday. On the sanctuary door, you can see two laminated photos, taken by Al McConnaha. These photos are not for the contest but in memory of Al McConnaha, who was the church photographer.

Saturday Bible Study

We are studying the Hebrews which has deep theology, mainly Christology. Come to learn and discuss about the deep theology and the mystery in the book of Hebrews.

Sanctuary AC Fixed

Last Sunday the sanctuary A/C did not work. Roy called the service company on Monday and it is now working in the sanctuary. We can worship God in cool sanctuary again.

Want to Add Music to the Service?

If you have considered playing an instrument, singing, or performing a dramatic reading, summer is the perfect time! Please inform Lisa Hutcheson, and she will coordinate with your schedule. The congregation is very supportive and loves to hear members share their talents, so don’t hesitate to give it a try!

Pastor Je and the Korean War Veterans (and their families) are welcome to join the luncheon today. The venue is Ma Ma’s Korean Restaurant on Pendleton Pike. Please contact pastor Je.

Faith Circle Today

The Faith Circle’s June meeting is today 1:30 PM at the church library. The Faith Circles meets every second Tuesday of the month from April to October.

BYOB Coming Friday

The monthly fellowship over lunch is coming Friday. BYOB—Bring Your Own B where B can be anything such as burger, burrito, baked potatoes, beef, bacon, buffalo wings, bibimbap, bento, etc, but not beer. It is coming Friday, 11:30 AM at the church library.

Flag Day

Coming Friday, June 14th is Flag Day when we celebrate our national flag (or Stars and Stripes) and commemorates June 14th, 1777 when the Continental Congress determined the composition of the nation’s banner: “Resolved, That the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.” How about we salute the flag this Friday?

Coming Sunday Hymns

Well, I do not yet have the hymns for this coming Sunday Morning Worship Service. But let me share one of my favourite Christian songs:

Sunday Scriptures and Sermon Title

Session Meeting

The monthly session meeting will be next Tuesday, June 18th, 6:30 PM at the church library. The session is a church council at the Presbyterian Church where the elected elders in active service assemble and discuss the church business. During the session meeting, all important church decisions are made. The session meeting is open to all members. You can come and voice out your suggestions, concerns, and thoughts at the meeting.

Worship in the Park

The Worship in the Park with the Central Christian Church at the Memorial park band stand is coming soon on Sunday, June 23rd. There will be pitch-in luncheon after the worship service. Members are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs and food to share after the service. Though our regular Sunday worship service begins at 10:30 AM, the Worship in the Park begins at 10 AM. In case of rain, the worship will be at the Central Christian Church.

Voice Actor Needed

Don’t you love hearing the dramatised Scripture Readings during the Sunday Worship Services? You can join the bliss of being part of it. If you are willing, let Neal know before the Worship Service on each Sunday.

Nursery Volunteer

If you would like to volunteer for the church nursery during the Sunday morning worship service, please talk to Debbie Crouse.

Prayer Request?

Original Sin

OT Lesson: Ezekiel 18:1-4, 25-32 (NLT) Then another message came to me from the Lord: “Why do you quote this proverb concerning the land of Israel: ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, but their children’s mouths pucker at the taste’? As surely as I live, says the Sovereign Lord, you will not quote this proverb any more in Israel. For all people are mine to judge—both parents and children alike. And this is my rule: The person who sins is the one who will die.” “Yet you say, ‘The Lord isn’t doing what’s right!’ Listen to me, O people of Israel. Am I the one not doing what’s right, or is it you? When righteous people turn from their righteous behaviour and start doing sinful things, they will die for it. Yes, they will die because of their sinful deeds. And if wicked people turn from their wickedness, obey the law, and do what is just and right, they will save their lives. They will live because they thought it over and decided to turn from their sins. Such people will not die. And

OT Lesson: Exodus 32:1-14 (CEB) The people saw that Moses was taking a long time to come down from the mountain. They gathered around Aaron and said to him, “Come on! Make us gods who can lead us. As for this man Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t have a clue what has happened to him.” Aaron said to them, “All right, take out the gold rings from the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” So all the people took out the gold rings from their ears and brought them to Aaron. He collected them and tied them up in a cloth. Then he made a metal image of a bull calf, and the people declared, “These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!” When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the calf. Then Aaron announced, “Tomorrow will be a festival to the Lord!” They got up early the next day and offered up entirely burned offerings and brought well-being sacrifices. The people sat down to eat and drin
