Last Week
Thank you to:
Pastor Jean who led us in worship and taught us the ABC's of the Trinity: Action, Broadcast and Commitment!
Those who served in worship: Dawn Richards, Peg McAllister, Angela Catton and Tim Kass.
Mark Juhl and Karen Schroeder who spearheaded the Hunger Campaign for the RAGBRAI ride this summer. Living Faith exceeded our goal and contributed $755 for this cause! Thank you for your generosity, Living Faith!
All who picked up placards to decorate for our Ice Cream Days float! Please return them next Sunday or bring them to the starting point of the parade on June 17th - our float will be parked between 1st Ave SW and 2nd Ave SW on the Boulevard (Spot #38)!
We celebrated Trinity Sunday with 28 in worship and an offering of $2,160.
This Sunday:
We welcome Pastor David Halaas to the Chapel to lead us in worship! It will be good to have Pastor Halaas with us again!
Join us for worship by parking in the rear of the Presbyterian United Church of Christ. Enter through the preschool door, come down the hallway, turn to your left and find the Chapel at the end of the hallway.
Pastor Halaas will accompany us, Jess Kopperud will read scripture and Kari Kopperud will assist with communion.
Last week at our 10:00 Faith + Fellowship time, we learned about each other's favorite doughnuts (as we enjoyed doughnuts provided by the McAllisters - thank you John & Peg!), the best gift we've ever received and miracles that we have observed!
Join us this Sunday for coffee, treats provided by Gail Kass, and lively conversation!

Parents and Grandparents!
Looking for ways to unplug each day for your children and/or grandchildren and to spend time as a family in amongst the busy-ness of daily life? Here's a resource for you!
Check out faith5.org!
Faith5 is a daily practice that can be done at the supper table or before bedtime! It involves 5 simple steps: 1. Share Highs and Lows
2. Read a Bible story or Bible verse
3. Talk about how that verse or story relates to anyone's highs or lows
4. Pray for one another's high and lows
5. Bless each other
