1. MORE HOMEWORK! – This past Sunday at the end of the sermon, Pastor Matt gave the homework to 1) BUILD up 2 people with your words or actions and 2) attempt to BRIDGE a broken relationship by reaching out with a call, letter, or meeting. (BTW, the best way to start is with the words “I’m sorry…”) This Sunday we will ask people to give a report about how it went. Be ready!
2. 5TH SUNDAY WORSHIP – July 30th is the 5th Sunday of the month. The plan is to have the Oasis children worship with their parents the entire morning. This gives both teachers and children a break. We will have “Busy Bags” available if your child needs them. We will also have a special time for the children during the service.
