Summer is in full swing and Eastminster is ministering in
may ways. The July 4 "Salute to America" involved over 550
people for the concert, including 60 singers and the Melbourne Municipal
Band. Eastminster engaged in hospitality with many more members of the
community, providing restrooms, water and serving 900 ice cream cones!
Our alternative viewing space in the fellowship hall accommodated over 100
people with excellent sound and video quality. Way to go techies!
Thanks to Teresa Fleenor for overseeing the music and
helping to coordinate the big picture, which involved scores of persons in
providing security, hospitality, children's activities, food, and facilities
readiness. I continue to receive kind words and notes about the event.
Please pray for our children and youth as summer is a key
time for spiritual growth. Our senior highs are at Montreat as I write
and the middle schoolers just returned from Massanetta. Over 50 children
are in summer camp at Eastminster each week as directed by Eleni Yiapis.
Camps and conferences are a big part of the growth of children and youth.
Your generosity is enabling God to touch and be a part of their lives!
It is exciting to be part of Eastminster as it impacts
people of all ages as we practice love of God and one another. May you
too experience renewal this summer!
