Private Confession and Absolution: Have you taken a hard look at the sin and spiritual struggles in your life? Are there any particular sins that trouble you? If so, please feel free to come to the church on Wednesday at 5:30, or call Pastor Hellwege (636-532-3313) to set up another time for private Confession and Absolution. There is nothing more freeing than directly hearing God’s forgiveness for you!
Potluck and Prayer: At Emmaus we are sincerely seeking God’s will and blessing for our people and congregation. Our Lord urges us in Matthew 18:19-20 “If two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in My name, there am I among them.” In faith, we are going to take our needs to our God in prayer, planning on meeting this Wednesday at the school. We will meet at 6:00 with a pot-luck supper and then gather for prayer. Please join us as we raise our voices in prayer to our gracious God.
Emmaus Garage Sale – The parents of the basketball team which has been using our gym are running a second garage sale to help us clean up our school basement. We greatly appreciate their efforts! The next sale will be held this Saturday and and again on June 26 from 8-2. If you have items you would like to donate, time you would like to offer to help, or items you would like to buy, please talk with Rebecca Mayes (rbmayes@gmail.com, 229-1134) for further information.
Theological Discussion will be Thursday, June 17 at Gelateria del Leone on Grand Ave. just north of Wyoming. This month’s topic is confirmation and first communion and will be led by Rev. Dr. Benjamin Mayes.
