JOIN US FOR WORSHIP SERVICE SUNDAYS AT 9:30 A.M.
BIRTHDAY AND CELEBRATION SUNDAY – Next week in worship we will celebrate the July Birthdays and Anniversaries if you would like to be recognized. We will also dedicate the “One Great Hour of Sharing” offerings.
CHRISTMAS IN JULY - We are collecting financial donations to help provide playground equipment and supplies for our mission partners, Zeteo Missions in the Philippines. Please write "Zeteo" in the memo section of your check or Zelle giving. Thank you for your donations!
IN MEMORIAM – With sadness, we share that our dear church member, Dennis Mahr, passed away on Sunday morning, August 12, at his care home. Please keep his wife, Chris, and their family in your prayers during this difficult time. A memorial service is being planned for the fall, with details to be shared when they become available.
NEXT WEEK – Pastor Julie will be away next week attending her clergy study group in Colorado, July 24-30, as she reads and discusses contemporary theology with other Presbyterian pastors in the mountains of Estes Park. Rev. Dr. Dave Jewett will be in the pulpit on Sunday, July 26 to bring God's Word to you all and you will be in good hands with him. The office will be open for regular business July 27-30.
SUMMER IN THE CONFESSIONS – This summer, Pastor Julie will be exploring ideas from the PCUSA Historic Confessions of Faith in occasional sermons. Our denomination is known as a "confessional church," meaning we hold to the truths of both Scripture, and the historic witness of the Church as affirmed in 11 confessional statements. These are: The Apostles's Creed, The Nicene Creed, The Scots Confession, The Heidelberg Catechism, The Second Helvetic Confession, The Westminster Confession of Faith, The Shorter and Larger Catechisms, The Theological Declaration of Barmen, The Confession of 1967, and the Belhar Confession.
If you want some "light reading" this summer, (!!) you might like to look at these as we study them over June, July, and August. There are copies available in the Library, or you can read them online for a free download to a laptop at: https://pcusa.org/resource/book-confessions
DEACON'S FUND – Many people are struggling with the basics of food and shelter. Here at St. Andrew, we try to help both our members and our neighbors through our Deacon’s Fund. We buy gas, and grocery cards to give to people knocking on our office door asking for help, and to assist our members with a small financial gift if they have an unexpected need. The Deacon’s Fund comes solely from contributions from our church family. If you’re able, please help in serving our church and community in this special way. Contributions should include “Deacon’s Fund” in the memo. Thank you!
ONGOING COLLECT FOR ST. JOHN'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH: We will continue monthly to collect protein items for St. John's Episcopal Church's community food distribution program. The collection box will remain in the Narthex for your donations of canned meats, beans and peanut butter, and the committee will bring the donations we receive to St. John. If you would like the help with packing food for the St. John’s Episcopal Church Ministry, this happens on the fourth Thursday of every month from 1-3 pm, at 45319 Deglet Noor St, Indio. Thank you for helping our neighbors.
DONATIONS TO OUR CHURCH: The Bank of America has a new policy stating that all checks must be made out to our correct business name. When making a donation to our church in the form of a check, you must now write: St. Andrew Community Presbyterian Church. No abbreviations or other forms of our name will be allowed. To avoid this, we recommend that you make donations through Zelle using our finance email: standrewfinance1@gmail.com. You could also set up Bill Pay through your bank but be sure to use the full name of the church as seen above. Vanco is another option, but keep in mind that Vanco removes 2% of every donation before we receive it. Thank you for your understanding.
DID YOU KNOW WE HAVE ASSISTED LISTENING DEVICES? – Assisted listening devices are available to help in Worship. Joe Hamner has them at the back table if you would like to use a set.
