This coming Sunday will be the first Sunday of July, that means it will be our celebration of Communion, followed by a covered dish dinner. Additionally, we will conduct a collection for the Church Service Center in Avon Park. In addition to non-perishable foodstuff, officials at the Church Service Center have indicated they also could use a collection of various toiletries for distribution as well as clean plastic grocery bags, which they use to package up the materials for our less fortunate brothers and sisters in Christ. The Church Service Center endeavors to provide relief for those in need in our community. People who qualify for assistance may receive food, clothing and furniture when it is available. When finances permit they also may help with prescriptions, temporary lodging, utilities, rent and gasoline. They also have a Parish Nurse outreach that is available from 10am until noon on weekdays. They are able to check blood pressures and offer valuable health advice. They also offer information about other social service organizations which offer assistance not provided by the Church Service Center. |

This coming Sunday, July 5th is the Fifth Sunday after Pentecost Our scripture will be Mark 6:1 - 13 which reads; He left that place and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him. 2On the sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astounded. They said, “Where did this man get all this? What is this wisdom that has been given to him? What deeds of power are being done by his hands! 3Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon, and are not his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him. 4Then Jesus said to them, “Prophets are not without honor, except in their hometown, and among their own kin, and in their own house.” 5And he could do no deed of power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and cured them. 6And he was amazed at their unbelief. Then he went about among the villages teaching. 7He called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. 8He ordered them to take nothing for their journey except a staff; no bread, no bag, no money in their belts; 9but to wear sandals and not to put on two tunics. 10He said to them, “Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave the place. 11If any place will not welcome you and they refuse to hear you, as you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet as a testimony against them.” 12So they went out and proclaimed that all should repent. 13They cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them. |
