JULY EVENTS:   

 TUESDAY’S LADIES STUDY:

On Tuesday, July 7th our Ladies Study Group will start up again meeting  in the Annex (which has a new porch). We will be reading Proverbs and sharing what God is teaching us. Hope to see you there!

 

 MEN OF VALOR:

The time we spend together is incredibly significant for each one of us. Tuesday night Men of Valor gatherings are intended to enhance the interaction and provide a place where we can experience joy and encouragement. Look at what’s on tap for July:

July 14—we will finish our study on Do the Next Right Thing by looking at the Handhold of LOVE (chapters 9-10 if you are following along in the book)

July 28—Fire Night. We will have a fire behind the Annex, eat some awesome food, and just hang together as we ruminate about life and what God is up to in and around us.

As always, we begin at 6:00pm with food and desserts, with our discussion time following at around 6:30. Make a commitment to journey with other men as we become God’s Mighty Men of Valor in this age.

 

Celebration of Life Service:                                                                                                                                     

Donna Stark when home to be with the Lord on the morning of Wednesday, June 24. She was such a significant part of the CBC leadership team, taking the reigns of the music ministry for many years, and leaving an indelible mark. e Celebration of Life Service for Donna will be held here at CBC on Friday, July 17 beginning at 11:00am. There will be a reception downstairs after the service.

 

  PRAYER GATHERING:

Prayer remains our single most effective privilege and responsibility in the journey of faith. To that end we have set aside Sunday evening, July 19, at 6:00pm to simply meet and pray. There is no set program, no secondary  agenda, just time praying as the body of Christ. You are invited to join in this amazing movement.

 

SPECIAL GUEST:

Pastor Dewayne will be out of town July 19. We have the privilege of welcoming Bob Johns to our spiritual family. He will be here to share the            message and connect God’s word to the circumstance of your life.

 

CHURCH BBQ:

After our special Youth Service on July 26th we will have a BBQ in the back yard. It will be a special time together you won’t want to miss. Please put it on your calendar. Details will follow.

 

LOOKING AHEAD:

 

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT:

August 4, Here in the Dayton City Park—5-8pm

The CBC Men’s Retreat is set for August 28-30 at Camp Touchet in the Joshua Lodge (the nice hotel-like facility). Accommodations are terrific. Surroundings are spectacular.
