EBC Family,

The beginning of summer, especially after a May with rain, means that there is lots of mowing to do. It’s the time of year that the grass in my yard grows much faster than I want it to. It seems like I need to mow every other day. My prayer for you is that this summer will also be a time of spiritual growth. But there is more to spiritual growth than sitting under the teaching of God’s Word. The Bible tells us that spiritual growth happens WITH other believers (Read Ephesians 4:15-16). This means that we need to spend time with one another in order to grow spiritually!

This is what we are setting aside time on Sunday nights this summer to do - Grow Together! Pick up a Level Up Game Card at the back of the Worship Center and get started. Each week that you are in town this summer, make it your goal to spend time with another person or family in our church. Do the activities on the Game Card together to foster spiritual conversations and spur you on to service together.

Pray for our students and sponsors this week who are at Super Summer in Shawnee. Super Summer is a week long camp for students who want to be leaders in their Youth Group. Pray that God would work in the lives of our students to solidify their foundation in Christ and develop them to lead and serve our Youth Group.

It is a joy to belong to God’s Family at EBC,

Pastor Clint
