Dear Friends,
This week's bulletin and insert can be found using the link above. You'll see that this Sunday is the last day to bring school supplies for children who are unable to get everything they need. Also, we will be praying for the new school year at 2:00 pm on Sunday, August 23rd at the Mormon Trail Building. We will include all students, teachers, administrators, and employees at all of our local schools. Follow as God leads you to help make this a successful school year for everyone. God Bless you ALL!

"God at Work with Pain-in-the Neck People"
by Pastor Diane Olson-Schroeder
Genesis 37: 1-4, 12-28
(Joseph, a pain-in-the-neck to his brothers)
& Psalm 105: 5-6, 16-22, 45b
(a summary of the historical significance of the pain-in-the-neck
relationship between Joseph and his brothers)
Philippians 2: 1-4 (Paul writes from prison to the church in Philippi. God is at work in relationships among us.)
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit. if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in the spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Relationships . . . some are a pain-in-the neck.
Be open to the Spirit's help in all relationships.
Be strong in the Spirit.
Bear the Spirit's fruit.
Galations 5: 22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
