🙏 SUNDAY WORSHIP SERVICES
Join us each Sunday at 10:30 a.m. as our church family gathers for worship, music, prayers and a Bible-based sermon. On Sunday, June 7, we will serve Holy Communion, which is observed on the first Sunday of each month. This is the Lord’s Supper and open to all.
On Sundays when Holy Communion is served, children remain in church with their families, and it is also Noisy Bucket collection day. Packets with stories, puzzles, coloring pages, etc. are available for children during the worship service. There is a nursery for infants through preschool children.
After worship service, come and enjoy a time of food and fellowship in Gillespie Hall. It’s a great time to visit informally.
If you cannot attend our worship service, here is the link for the live recorded service on Community Presbyterian YouTube channel:

Hi Friends!
Tuesday Morning Meditation
In the rhythm of our busy lives, it can be difficult to find moments of true stillness—space where we can listen, pray, and simply be present with God. Yet throughout scripture, we are invited again and again into quiet: to rest, to abide, and to notice the gentle movement of God’s Spirit within and around us.
In response to this invitation, I would like to begin a new weekly gathering: a Tuesday Morning Meditation held in the sanctuary at 9:00 AM, beginning June 9. This will be a simple, 30-minute time to center ourselves in God’s presence through scripture, silence, and guided prayer. We will be done in time to make it to Hank’s Hour on the second Tuesday.
Each week will follow a gentle pattern. We will begin with a short passage of scripture, read slowly in the spirit of Lectio Divina—an ancient practice of listening deeply for God’s word. As the words settle, we will enter into a period of quiet meditation, allowing space for prayer that is less about speaking and more about receiving. We will close with an opportunity to share a brief reflection, if you feel led, and a simple prayer to carry us into the day.
This is not a class or a program, but a space—one rooted in stillness, openness, and trust. There is no expectation of experience or expertise. Whether you are familiar with meditation or completely new to it, you are welcome just as you are.
Like the psalmist reminds us, “Be still, and know that I am God.” In that stillness, we often discover not emptiness, but presence—God already there, waiting for us to notice.
We hope this weekly rhythm will offer a quiet beginning to your Tuesdays and a deeper awareness of God’s abiding presence throughout your week. I would welcome your thoughts and input.
Blessings!
Pastor Kirk.

📖 SUNDAY SCHOOL
We want our children to know of God’s love and history of interaction with humanity. Bible stories, lessons on kindness and love, fellowship with other children and so much more are part of Sunday school for ages K-8. Children remain in church through the children’s sermon, then leave for Sunday school, except on Communion Sundays.📚 BOOK CLUB
The next meetings of Book Club will be on Thursday, June 4 and 18, at 4 p.m., in Gillespie Hall. We are studying Twelve Daring Women of the Bible. Everyone is invited to this discussion group. We meet on the first and third Thursday of each month. Contact Kate Hinchee for information, or just show up.☕️ HANK’S HOUR
Hank’s Hour is Tuesday, June 9, at 10 a.m. at BuzzBru. This is a time to enjoy informal conversation over your choices of beverage. All are invited. It’s a great time to get caught up on one another, and to bring a friend to get acquainted with other church folks.🍕 YOUTH PIZZA & MOVIE TIME
We’d like our youth to know each other better and feel more a part of the church, so all youth (grades 7-12) are invited to an informal time with pizza and a movie on Sunday, June 28, following worship service. We hope to make this a monthly event, perhaps with various other activities in the future.🍔 LUNCH BUNCH
Everyone is invited to go out to lunch at 12 noon on the last Tuesday of each month, gathering in a local eatery to enjoy fellowship over lunch. Do you have a good idea for a place on Tuesday, June 30? Let Edna Munson or Sarah Yates know if you plan to attend so we can make reservations.🧑 VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
We will be hosting Vacation Bible School on our church campus this year, in collaboration with Main Street Church, during the week of July 27-31. If you would like to volunteer as a leader, aide, music, treat-fixer, helping with set-up, etc., contact Kathy Love.
🗒 NOTES FROM SESSION
Watch for action on our prayer garden. Plans are for curbing, sprinklers, additional topsoil, hydro seeding – and we hope it is ready to be used for Vacation Bible School on our church campus the final week of July.Holy Communion will be served on Sunday, July 12, to avoid the Independence Day holiday weekend.

🏠 THRIFTY YARD SALE
Our Thrifty Yard Sale is open on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and always has new stock for sale at bargain prices. Right now, they are low on jewelry, which is a popular sales item. What about going through that box of “jewels” and donating the non-used items?
They always need volunteers on weekday mornings and to carry items out and put them away on Saturdays. Also donations of new and lightly-used items, but please not on Friday or Saturday during open hours. This is not just a fund-raiser, but also a mission to the many people who seek and find friendship along with their bargains.⏰ CHURCH OFFICE HOURS
Pastor Kirk and our church secretary, Raylene van Leeuwen, are in the church office in Gillespie Hall on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9 a.m. until 12 noon. If you have announcements or other information for the church bulletin, please have these turned in by 9 a.m. Thursday. The office number is 435-723-6262 and the email address is cpcbcoffice@gmail.com.
