Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church I will be out of the church office until next Monday for my scheduled absence. I pray this will be a week filled with inspiration and encouragement for you. Next Sunday, July 18, we will be worshiping with the persons who are attending the South Central Conference annual meeting here in Austin. The location for the service is the Red Lion Hotel, northeast of the intersection of I-35 North and Hwy 290 East. Please plan to join us if your schedule allows it. The time of the service is 9:30-11:00 in the morning. Michele Hershberger, Chair of the Bible Department at Hesston College, will be the preacher for the worship service. We appreciate Ron Diener serving as our delegate, Heidi Xiong for agreeing to be Recorder for the sessions, and Carrie Bert for designing conference decor. Many others have helped prepare for this special meeting. We are blessed to have such a caring and compassionate community. There is an opening for 'Worship Leader' on Sunday, Jul 25. Also, many ministry opportunities are available for the month of August, including Worship Leader (8, 15, 22), Children's Story (1, 8, 22), Greeter (all), and Decor (1, 8, 29). Please let me know of those which you believe would be possible for you. May it go well with you.
