Greetings!! What a busy summer for many of us--vacation, travel sports, camps, conferences, and everything else in between! I want to thank all who have sent in pictures of the places you have been and the things you have done. I love to see and be a part of your lives.
But as the summer winds down (not the weather, but the rapid approach of the beginning of school), I want to let you know of a couple of things happening. First, I will resume my Monday night Bible Study on August 6. We meet at 7:00 in my office, and we will begin studying the book of Proverbs. Anyone can join and do not worry if you have to miss on occasion--we have a good time and great discussion each week.
Secondly, Rally Day is Sunday, August 12. We begin with breakfast and then have a program to "rally" children, youth, and adults to attend Sunday School. It is always a fun fellowship event, and I encourage all to find a Sunday school class if you are not already in one. These are a great time to learn and join in community with others.
Grace and Peace,
RIX
