Dear Fellow Travelers,
There are a lot of great things happening at Edmonds PC. On May 18th, we had a great bicycle distribution event run by Edmonds Toyshop which is part of Edmonds Food Bank. They love working with us and we love them. If you would like to help them with their work, please consider giving to https://edmondsfoodbank.org/donate/
 
The Edmonds Coop Preschool has also been in full swing for several month. They will have a summer break starting in late June and then start up again in the fall. If you know anyone who needs preschool child care for 2 – 4 year olds, please have them to sign up for the fall: www.edmondscooppreschool.org
 
I will preach a series on the mysterious book of Hebrews this summer. We will have discussion time after worship in place of Bible Study starting in July. Our current “Acts” Bible Study continues through June 23. In the fall, we will study 2nd Corinthians which is a great book in the lead up to the election in November. Paul talks about faithful and good leadership.
 
Games Night on the 2nd Saturday of each month will continue through the summer. The next one is June 8th at 7 PM. Crafternoon was a great success in May. We will have it again on the 3rd Sunday after worship on June 16th.
 
Please tell your friends and family about our Online Streaming Worship. We are averaging about 30 views per week and would love to see it grow! Please go to the www.epc-pcusa.org website for the latest links.
 
​This is what I am planning for worship in June.
 
Sunday, June 2nd. In “Your Servant is Listening” you will hear the story of Samuel being called by God quietly. I will also highlight Paul’s calling with a bang on the road to Damascus. We are all called to service in different ways. How do you answer God’s call in your life?
 
Sunday, June 9th. I interact with a lot of young people online. One theme I frequently hear about is the fear of “The Unforgivable Sin.” Jesus said blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is not forgiven. Should you fear it? It is something very specific and not something to be feared by ordinary people. Learn what it is.
 
Sunday, June 16th. In “We Walk By Faith Not By Sight” I explore one of the most amazing passages of 2nd Corinthians about Christian confidence. When we are integrated with our faith, we can serve God with boldness knowing that nothing is more power than the love of God in our lives.
 
Sunday, June 23rd. We will be blessed with the teaching of Rev. David Hackett. He has traveled the world spreading God’s goodness and he is filled with wisdom. Now retired, he and his wife Sandy are active in the Presbytery.
 
Sunday, June 30th. Eileen Otti will preach “Who Touched My Clothes” about Jesus healing the woman with a hemorrhage. This story is the best example of a Markan Sandwich. 11 times in Mark, he uses this literary device to highlight the deep compassion and grace of Jesus.
 
It is a joy to serve God with you! I look forward to worshiping with you in June!
 
Grace and Peace, Pastor Rob
