Yes, worship will be at Camp Laurent today!

Right now the sky looks a little ominous, but ... the chance of precipitation is extremely low for 11 a.m. and the future radar is not showing rain during our gathering time. If anything changes, I'll be sure to post an update.

Day 3 of Back to the Garden VBS (Vacation Bible School) was filled scripture (John 15:1-5) and camp songs. We created herb gardens to take home to tend and shared a snack of homemade, herbed goat cheese.

Day 2 of Back to the Garden Vacation Bible School (VBS). We discussed Psalm 139:13–16 and the last time we were seen for who we are (not who we are expected to be), decorated canvas totes with leaf prints, and shared a snack of fresh fruit - the fresh pineapple was a hit! Day 3 starts in a little over an hour!

Day 1 of our Adult "Back to the Garden" Vacation Bible School (VBS) is in the history books! Today we made perennial seed paper, reflected on Genesis 2:4b-9, and sang "This Is The Day". VBS will continue in the community center for the next four days from 10 a.m. until 11:30 a.m., except Friday when we will stay a little later to celebrate the week with lunch and cake.

❤️🤍💙 This 4th of July, let us remember (a truthful) history, acknowledge our current events, and commit to continuing to work toward "Liberty & Justice for ALL."

🙌🏾 "Christian extremism is not theological. Supremacists’ ideology is not biblical. Domination over other human beings is not of God.

The call to Be the Church where God is still Speaking is an acknowledgement that racial justice includes all humans and never excludes anyone based on skin color, culture, ethnic origin, non-binary gender identities, sexual orientation, abilities, or age.

Jesus taught humanity that Justice is for ALL!"

-Rev. Dr. Velda Love, Minister for Racial Justice Ministries
