7 from Sunday

I will bless the LORD at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
"My soul shall make its boast in the LORD;
The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
Oh, magnify the LORD with me,
And let us exalt His name together."
Psalm 34:1-3

Summer

Well the Missions teams are starting to filter back home. I have only gotten to talk to Ben so far, and it sounds like the Russia team had an amazing harvest! So much so they were looking for more 'crop'! (Sorry a little aggie humor there!) Seriously they saw so many people make decisions for the LORD! and they saw them at church too! Isn't that cool!
the blended team is just getting back and the Kenya team is in the middle of their time. It has been fun to see all the pictures from the P3 and see how and what they are up to.
Be praying for those who are sick some who are starting to travel back and some in Kenya.
Pastor Jack has been such a blessing in all the teaching the LORD has had him do. I love how HE has raised up so many gifted teachers in our fellowship!
The Coffee House servants had a lunch last Sunday, to welcome new servants (The Merrills and Shruti) and to say goodbye to others (The Shorbas, but just from that ministry) It was a good time to touch base and visit with everyone, always a fun time!
There are some amazing 'clouds' today from the fire just east of us (about 30 miles SE). They looked like giant thunderheads. Chris got on the roof to see if he could get a good vantage point to take photos. Alas it was already breaking up.
It has been rather quiet at Shoreline with everyone on missions trips and vacations. It will be nice to see them all back!
Blessings to you all from our little part of Christ's family.
