Thank you to everyone who helped with our Homecoming Sunday last week, as well as those who helped with setting up and resetting the church.
Bible Reading
| Day | Reading | Info |
| Monday | 1 Chronicles 13-15 | The Ark is brought back to Jerusalem, but it only gets as far as Kirjath Jearim – read and find out why! David is established as king in Jerusalem, and finished moving the Ark to Jerusalem. |
| Tuesday | 1 Chronicles 16-18 | David sings a song of Thanksgiving as the Ark is placed in the Tabernacle. God established His covenant with David and David is successful in wars. |
| Wednesday | 1 Chronicles 19-22 | David is successful against Ammonites, Syrians, and Rabbah. But David should not have taken the census – read and find out why! David also decides to build God a house. |
| Thursday | 1 Chronicles 23-24 | Here are the divisions of the Levites, priests, and others. |
| Friday | 1 Chronicles 25-26 | Here are the divisions of the musicians and gatekeepers. |
| Saturday | 1 Chronicles 27-29 | Here are the military divisions and other leaders. Instead of David building God's house, Solomon will and it will be paid for by offerings. Solomon is also anointed as king. |
Interesting notes:
· 1 Chron. 13 – notice how it goes from bad to worse: They transported the Ark wrong; as a result, it started to fall; as a result, Uzza touched it and died.
· David's Song of Thanksgiving in chapter 16 is also preserved as parts of Psalms 105, 96, and 106.
· In chapter 24, each of the 24 groups of Levites worked 2 week shifts.
· In chapter 25, we find 24 groups of Musicians to match the 24 groups of Levites

Vacation Bible School
August 8th - 13th
Gear up for an underground adventure that grounds kids in the rock-solid foundation of God's love, a love that takes us through life's dark times.
(There'll also be an awesome program for our teens).
This year's theme is :
"Cave Quest:
Following Jesus,
the Light of the World"
5:30-6:30pm- Supper
6:30-8:45pm- VBS!
Please pray for VBS and that kids will be impacted for Christ through it.
Also, pray about where God can use you in our VBS this year.
Just Remember:
When David, ridiculed by his brothers,
went out to meet Goliath,
he was a decided minority in size
but he won (with God)!
