Anyone interested please contact Jim Cote. Men s Small Group July 12 th - August 16th In our culture Christian men need to be intentional in building a Christ honoring support network where he can be encouraged and graciously held accountable. Emmanuel is embarking on providing a new resource that will aid the pursuit of personal integrity and the internet. If you are interested in growing towards Christ and away from the allure of the flesh join us every Thursday starting at 7:00PM for six weeks to get pointed in a new life giving direction. Email or call Pastor Pete for questions or to sign up. Help for the Food Pantry The Food Pantry could use a few volunteers to pick up the day-old bread at the Shaw's in Medway. We have to pick it up on Friday mornings around 9 and bring it to the Food Pantry to be given out on Saturday mornings. If you have a free Friday morning and can help, please contact Dee Harpin or the church office: foodpantry@ebcnorfolk.org. If we had several volunteers, each person would only have to do the pick up once a month or so.

Women s Retreat - September 14 th - 16 th If you have attended the woman's retreat at Camp Berea before you probably left feeling refreshed, refocused, and a little more connected with the other ladies of Emmanuel. Berea offers plenty of free time to sit by the lake with a coffee and your bible or to participate in more active things like archery or hiking, or to complete a craft with a friend. Heck, catch up on some sleep ladies! The food is great and most of all the staff and the speaker always seem to create a space for you to connect with Jesus. What is most beneficial is the opportunity to get out of our everyday environment and just get away and meet with Jesus.
