A heart for God....and each other
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart... and your neighbor as yourself."
Matthew 22:37,39
This summer we are focusing on ways that we have a heart for God and for one another. Let's covenant with one another to be intentional about deepening our relationships as members of Christ the King.
- Sit with someone whom you do not know in worship
- During the fellowship time, have a glass of lemonade with someone you would like to get to know better
- Give a call, or send a note or a text to someone you have not seen in worship. Let them know you've missed them.
- Pray for a fellow member
- Visit one of our homebound members
- Send a card to someone on our prayer list
- Offer a word of gratitude to a fellow member

Pray. Resources are here.

Donate to the South Brunswick Food Pantry. We are collecting breakfast items in July, specifically Parmalat boxed milk, oatmeal in individual packets, and coffee. Please remember this on your next trip to the grocery store.
Donate to the Trenton Rescue Mission. For more information about this ministry see:
A box for donating gently used items in is the fellowship hall.
Help the Lutheran Disaster Relief Fight Famine in South Sudan Right now 7 million of our brothers and sisters in South Sudan need humanitarian aid.
That means that almost every dollar you give goes to help the cause and not to pay salaries or other "overhead."
Commit to Living out Your Baptism Do you intend to continue in the
covenant God made with you in holy baptism: to live among God’s faithful people, to hear the word of God and share in the Lord’s supper, to proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed, to serve all people, following the example of Jesus,
and to strive for justice and peace in all the earth?
We do! and ask God to help and guide us.
Think and Pray about Racism.
Listen to Bishop Eaton's Call to be Present. click here Read the ELCA Social Statement on Race, Ethnicity and Culture: click here
Pray:
O God, call us into a deeper relationship to be your church for the sake of the world. Help us to see
with new eyes the injustices within church and society. Call us to have a loving heart that respects and uplifts the humanity and dignity of every person. Open our ears to listen to and learn from the
experiences of people of color. Open our mouths to speak up about injustices. Join us with others
to work for racial equity and opportunity and full inclusion in for all people. In Jesus's name we pray. Amen

The Church confesses Christ, who has broken down the dividing wall (Ephesians 2:14). Christ, our
peace, has put an end to the hostility of race, ethnicity, gender, and economic class. The Church
proclaims Christ, confident this good news sets at liberty those captive behind walls of hostility
(cf. Luke 4:18).
