August 9, 2021: Backyard Wednesdays concludes this Wed. 8/11

This is your last chance! This Wednesday, August 11, is the final night of our Backyard Wednesdays. If you haven’t come yet, don’t let that stop you. In fact, this week would be a great time to come. As it is our final night and our topic is the Holy Spirit, we are decorating and flying kites! It promises to be a great time (assuming we have a little bit of wind!)

If you aren’t sure of what to expect or the format, let me remind you.

5:30-6pm – Dinner This week is a good ol’ traditional potluck. Bring something to share. Don’t worry about the type of food, simply bring something you like and that you want to eat. Vicky always does this, as then she knows there will be at least one dish she wants. 

6-6:30pm – Worship This is a traditional/camp fusion worship. We sing camp songs, but have elements of our regular worship, i.e., confession/forgiveness, communion, sermon.

6:30-7:30pm – VBS-style activities We watch a brief video then play some games and do a craft. As mentioned earlier, the craft/game time this week is decorating and flying kites!

The theme for all of these weeks as been “Females of the Bible.” So far, we have learned about Ruth and Naomi, Queen Esther, Mary and Martha, the Women and the tomb and this week we learn about the Holy Spirit. Wondering why we include the Holy Spirit when the theme is “Females of the Bible”? Well, I guess you will just have to come and fine out! (How is that for a teaser? )

We have had anywhere from 30-50 people come the previous 4 weeks and we hope to have even more Wednesday! Will you be there?

Grace and Peace,

Pastor Tim
