Retreat Pictures Needed --  In the Commons is a CRPC retreat board and we need your pictures from past retreats!

CCS Teaching Positions -- teaching in a Reformed classical Christian school is a very rewarding experience. CCS has positions for first grade afternoon, third grade, and fifth grade teachers. Maybe God is calling you to apply for one of these positions?  For more information, call the school office at 262-0062.

JULY 4th Picnic event is cancelled this year.

Adult Sunday School Classes June 8 Through August -- Ed Kline, Matt Erichsen, Dan Ridenour and John Livingstone will lead "Great Men and Women of the Bible" by R. C. Sproul.  We need authentic heroes.  The Old Testament prophets and patriarchs, and those key people that God used in New Testament times are indeed heroic and exemplary models for us today. This series captures the drama and realism of the lives of some of the most exciting men and women who have ever lived.  This class will meet in the auditorium.   See the Sunday School page for more information.

SCRIP Orders -- are due in the CCS office by noon July 14th.  For further information, please contact Tammy Shenk at 262-0062. Wal-Mart and Farm Fresh gift cards are always available in the school office.

Help Update Church Directory -- A proposed new church directory is on the table in the Commons.  Please check for any changes that need to be made for you or your family members.

Shepherding Visits, 2008 --  Instead of specific questions as used in years past, this year’s visits will be on topics.  The topics to be covered are personal sanctification, family relationships, church participation and relationships, relationships outside the church, and ways to improve the church’s ministry.

Prayer Chain --  If you would like to be added to the CRPC phone or e-mail prayer chain, please contact Annette Holloway.

She will be available after the Sunday school hour to take pictures at the front of the auditorium. You may also submit a 4x6 family picture instead of having a picture taken.
