WE ARE IN THE MIDST OF A SERMON series on the letter to the Hebrews. This is a letter that is particularly pertinent for Adventists because we have a lot in common with the Hebrew people of biblical times. We hope you find a blessing in today’s sermon.

JOIN US TONIGHT AT 6:00 PM for a vespers and ice cream social at the home of Richard and Susan Voth in Lakeside. Address and directions are on the bulletin insert. Please sign up at the table in the foyer so we know how many to expect. We hope you can join us for this sweet annual summertime event!

WE DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE A FIFTH SABBATH BREAKFAST team. The next 5th Sabbath is coming up in two weeks on August 30th. For breakfast to be served that day, we will need individuals to sign up and contribute a dish or food item. If any individuals are able to help set up, serve, or clean up that morning, that would be a great help too. A sign-up sheet is located at the table in the foyer.

THE NEXT MEETING OF THE TSDA CHURCH BOARD will be held on Sunday, August 24, at 4:00 pm.

WE ARE IN GREAT NEED OF VOLUNTEERS to give the children’s story and opening prayer. If you would like to give back to our church in this way, a sign-up sheet is located in the foyer alcove.

KELLY HESTER’S SABBATH SCHOOL CLASS has just begun a new book titled “Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus” by Lois Tverberg. This class discusses one chapter each week, fostering conversations in an encouraging atmosphere. If you have been looking for a chance to join this class, now is a great time!

TEEN SABBATH WILL BEGIN AGAIN on Sabbath, September 6, at 11:00 am in the Youth Room. On the first Sabbath of each month during the school year, this group for 12–17-year-olds meets to worship, potluck with one another, and enjoy activities that lead to lasting memories and friendships. Our September 6 worship service will be followed by apple picking in Julian!
