1.  I watched the Patriotic Service rehearsal last night. This is again going to be outstanding. Bring all your red, white, and blue friends.

2. Our missionary to the world from Israel is speakingSunday night, June 30th, at 6:00 p.m. in the Fireside Room. Bring a dessert to share and invite your neighborhood.

3. It seems that there are more families than ever that are in the middle of major life-altering events, not of their making. Pray for them.

4. The Supreme Court’s decision concerning gay marriage should send alarm bells to all of us. They, in effect, overturned 6,000 years of common sense and recognized law in all societies before us. I pray for America.  Call2Fall 

5.  I have been studying all week for the four week prophecy series beginning July 7. I am excited. I wonder if I will get to preach it before He returns.

6.  I have a huge Easter lily in my flower bed that will be in full bloom July 4th, seven blossoms. I don’t think it was there last year and I don’t remember planting it any time. It really is a sign of hope for me with all the other “stuff” going on.
