Library Corner:
Good news - the biography section in the library has not gone missing, it has just moved to the other side of the room.
Also, there are many DVD Bible studies that are available for anyone to use, so check them out. You can find them on the top shelf. They cover a variety of topics, everything from relationships to money management. If you are not able to commit to a group Bible study, it may work well for you to go through the material on your own. There are additional work books for purchase on the shelves, and further info is posted in the library. Help yourself.
And if you have a specific book that you would like to see in the library, please let me know and I will purchase them in the next couple of weeks. Leave a note in my mailbox or call me with the book title and author. Thanks, Nancy

Church Family Picnic @ Clearwater Ball Park @ 10:30 a.m.
Message by Pastor Dave.

•Church Family Picnic - Plan to attend the picnic on Sunday, September 2nd at the Clearwater ball park. The outside service will start at 10:30 and lunch will follow. Please bring your lawn chairs and picnic blankets just in case it is a little cool that morning. Everyone bring salads & drinks. Meat, buns & dessert will be provided. Helen’s group (3) is in charge. Lots of fun is planned for the afternoon, including the ever popular races for all ages, so get those muscles warmed up and stretched out! Some of the old classic races are planned as well as some new ones that will be just as much fun to watch as play. Please sign up at the back to be included in the lawn mower race - super hero cape is optional but highly encouraged. Not even kidding! Bring your mower and join in the fun. And you can not be in Clearwater without playing baseball, so bring your gloves and bats and teams will be made. Spitz are supplied, meet at diamond #2. The hike along the creek is also an option for those nature lovers who like to explore. There’s lots to do! Let’s celebrate our church family, laugh all afternoon and praise God.
