2 Sunday s Scripture Segments Scripture readings for this Sunday, August 2, The Tenth Sunday a er Pentecost, are: Exodus 16:2 4, 9 15 A food crisis becomes a faith crisis for the Israelites in the wilderness. The hungry people forget God s saving work in the exodus, and they wish for the food they had in Egypt. Nevertheless, God miraculously meets their needs, with manna for bread and quail for meat. Ephesians 4:1 16 Chris ans share fundamental unity and diversity. Our unity consists in the one body, one Spirit, one Lord, one faith, one bap sm, and one God. Our diversity is expressed in various forms of ministry, whose goal is equipping the saints and building up Christ s one body. John 6:24 35 Many of the five thousand people Jesus fed in the wilderness con nued to follow him throughout the countryside. Jesus challenges them to consider the real nature of their quest.

9 Serving NEXT Sunday August 9, 2015 What would like to do? Here s an idea! Make a posi ve impact on the Sunday experience of all who enter here! Flowers are indeed an enhancement to our worship space. Their significance is evident when we celebrate blessed occasions such as marriages and anniversaries and births. A flower s beauty and scent comforts us as we mourn and remember loved ones who have died. For centuries, flowers have held a significant role in the house of God. I believe we can all agree that weekly floral arrangements offer much to our worship se ngs here at Emmanuel. This Servant Opportunity can t be any easier! Just contact the church office (by phone, , or just stop in!), let us know what day you wish to provide flowers, bring your gi to church on Sunday and place it on the Altar, then take it home to enjoy a er service! It s that simple! Arrangements can be from your garden, from wheat or twigs, from a flower shop, or??? Please see Deb Dumroese if you have any ques ons. If you wish to dedicate to or memorialize someone, please let CindyMarie know before the Emphasis: Weekly Edi on deadline. (Usually Wednesday s at 8 AM.) Thank you for your service in this important ministry! Help ME Change the World Every Sunday this summer Mission Endowment (ME) will be helping to collect items for baby, hygiene, and school kits. We need your help! One week, one item at a me, we will Change the World! August is Collec on for School and Health Kits August 2: Bath size towel (dark color recommended about 52" x 27") August 9: 70 sheet notebooks of wide or college ruled 7" x 10 1/2" (no loose leaf paper) August 16: Blunt scissors (no sharp ones) or 30 cen meter rulers August 23: Pencil sharpener, unsharpened #2 pencils with erasers, or 2 1/3 long eraser August 30: New ballpoint pens (no gel ink), boxes of 16 or 24 crayons Check this space for weekly reminders! Our Passion for Compassion will Change the World! MISSION ENDOWMENT GIVES AWAY MONEY from the Endowment every year! That s right, we do!! And we need your help to make that happen.
