Summer is here and so is BBQ season! While you are barbecuing, there are actually a few lessons that we can learn besides the right temperature for your ribs.

The Bible commands that after making a decision to follow Jesus we are to be baptized. This is a symbol of new life in Christ. It shows they want to celebrate that new life in Christ and commit to living for Jesus publicly. If you would like to take that next step or you want to discuss further, fill out the form at community-church.com/baptism. We have a baptism service coming up on July 9th.

Men’s breakfast will not be meeting during the months of June, July & August. It will be back in September with a new focus. STAY TUNED for more information.

CSM

CSM Summer Nights! 
For the month of June we are going to keep the church building open from 6-8pm for students to come hang out. There will be NO specific program, but I wanted to provide a safe space where students can come hang out and see their friends. There will be a handful of leaders attending these nights to interact with the students as well as make sure everyone is behaving appropriately. We will have yard games and the occasional campfire. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, then we will just pivot to a movie in the worship center. This is open to incoming 6th graders as well as graduated seniors!

CSM Middle School Students are encouraged to join us for a Mission Trip to Chicago. Join us August 11-12th as we work alongside Inter City Impact to be immersed in urban ministry in Chicago. We will have an opportunity to be involved in making a difference in the lives of kids. Sign up at community-church.com/chicago.
