From the pastor
It’s hard to believe that we’re halfway through Summer!
Unless you’re still in school, summer doesn’t necessarily
mean we have 3 months of vacation. But there is usually a change of schedule, and that in itself is refreshing. SuzeAnn and I are grateful that we are able to take
some time for refreshment this coming week, and I hope
that you are able to find time and opportunity for recreation
and restoration and maybe travel sometime this summer as
well. I’m also grateful for our staff and leaders who are attending
to our ministry as a church while I’m gone. Here’s a glimpse at
some of what the coming weeks hold for us at NPC:
• This Sunday: Youth Pastor Gary Loomans is preaching part 2 of our Trusting
God Sermon Series and Pastoral Associate Rev. Dr. Larry Sancoucie is leading
our time of Communion.
• Next Week: The Teen iMPACT group will be on a mission trip to Guatemal. Be in prayer for Gary, Joann, Intern Liz Casler, Alex Owens, Libby
Loomans and Gideon Coffey.
• Next Sunday: Dr. Sansoucie will be preaching part 3 of our Trusting God
Sermons Series.
• Sunday, Aug 3: We begin a 3 part sermon series on Loving God and our
Annual Congregational Meeting will be held after worship, where we receive
annual reports and elect new officers.
• Saturday, August 9: Northminster Presbyterian Church is sending a group of its
members to do some much needed work around the church building.
• Sunday, August 24: Hamilton Avenue will be closed off for a neighborhood
street party, and we’ll begin the morning worshiping outside on the street!
Once again, we welcome Dr. Michael Unger,
Assistant Professor of Organ and Harpsichord
at CCM, as the guest organist for our worship
service. Prof. Unger holds a Doctorate of Musical Arts from the Eastman School of Music,
where he studied under David Higgs and William Porter. He is a multiple
award-winning performer, appearing as soloist and chamber musician in North
America, Europe and Japan. His performances have been broadcast on North
American and European radio in addition to syndicated programs Pipedreams
and With Heart and Voice. Recently, he performed with Cincinnati Symphony
Orchestra members in collaboration with the Cincinnati Opera production of
La Calisto. Please welcome Dr. Unger to our church this morning!
CAIN needs donations of feminine hygiene items
The Deacons have designated July as “hygiene” month. Bring your
regular size containers of “hygiene” items,
deodorant, shaving cream and razors to the
basket at the back of the sanctuary. Thank you.
Where’s Sam?
At Compass a
leadership training
program. Sam has
completed the
Wilderness and
Theological Expeditions. Today he
leaves for the Ministry Expedition in
Nicaragua. Here’s
a few pics.
Help us plan Discovery Hour for this Fall
During today’s service, we’ll all have
another chance to fill in a survey to
guide the team that’s planning this
fall’s Adult Discovery Hour. Maybe
you’d like our class to study the 152page Westminster Confession of
Faith in its original Elizabethan
English. Now’s your chance to
suggest that. Or if you think you
have a better idea, suggest that
one—quickly.
