All identified are in need of special care at this time. LOVING ON LONGVIEW, scheduled for next Sunday, June 7, will provide projects that serve and love our community neighbors. Fun Bunch members can choose a project and join others to share the love of Jesus in meaningful ways. Sign up today in the Commons for both on campus and off campus projects.

As plans are made, the Family Ministry will notify parents of the new date. FROM THE PRAYER TEAM Pray for us to have an attitude of self-sacrifice for Lovin’ on Longview Day, June 7th, as we remember Christ’s words in Matthew 26:40, “The King will reply, “I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.” EPHESIANS 5:1 - Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
