MENS SUMMER LUNCHES: This summer we are having a men’s lunch meeting at Jethro’s Steak ‘n Chop in South Ames (1301 Buckeye Ave) every Thursday from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm. Lunch is on your own. If you are able to join us, let Pastor Michael know so he can let Jethro’s know approximately how many to expect. There is no assigned reading for the lunch meeting but we will be having spiritual discussions. Plan to share what God is teaching you in your time alone with him or in what you are reading. You might want to share an especially meaningful Bible reading or devotional reading. You may share something that the Lord used in your life from some other book you have read or even something from the sermon on Sunday. If you have prayer requests we will pray for you. As always we want to press our lives through the sieve of the gospel so as we process what we are learning we want to continue to think of how to live life in light of the gospel.
COLLEGE MINISTRY PRAYER WALKS: Beginning this Wednesday, June 13, from 6:00-7:00 pm Tim & Sam Young and family will be leading a family friendly on-campus prayer walk. Meet at the Campanile at 6:00 pm. Join them as you can to pray for the ISU students and the college ministry at GABC. The scheduled nights for the summer are June 13 & 27, July 11 & 25 and August 8 & 22.
JULY 4TH CELEBRATION: Bring your family and friends and join us for a July 4th Celebration on Terry & Debbie Martens’ front lawn (51552 180th Street, Ames), Wednesday, July 4th beginning at 4:30 PM and ending with a Fireworks display and homemade ice cream in our backyard at dusk. The evening will include a Petting Zoo, Bouncy House, Balloon Art and of course our traditional Yard Games of egg toss and tug-of-war! Each family is asked to bring two sides dishes to help complement the meal; smoked meats will be provided for sandwiches. Hope you can join us and bring friends!
