FOUNDATIONS BOOKFAIR FUNDRAISER
Foundation’s will be holding a bookfair fundraiser August 24-28th in the foyer at Washington Free Methodist Church. This is a great opportunity to build your child’s home library with new books that will get them excited about reading, while also earning funds for our school. 
You will be able to purchase using a debit or credit card as well as cash. More Information is at the Welcome Center about purchasing, hours and adding to a student’s ewallet. We can’t wait to see you at the book fair and help every student discover a book they’ll love!
CELEBRATE BAPTISM – Sunday, August 16Join us on Sunday, August 16, as we celebrate baptism during our worship gathering! Baptism is an outward expression of the inward transformation Christ has made in our lives. It's an opportunity to publicly declare your faith in Jesus and celebrate the new life you've received in Him. If you've never been baptized and are ready to take this next step of faith, we'd love to talk with you. Please contact Pastor Adam or indicate your interest on your Connection Card.
SHARE YOUR STORY
Have you been inspired by the testimonies we have heard so far this year? Is it time for you to “Share Your Story” – a personal testimony of how Jesus changed your life, a story of how God worked in your life or a specific situation, a way that Scripture spoke to you or impacted your life, or a story of how you stepped out in faith to serve or witness. If you have the desire to “Share Your Story” during one of our Sunday morning Worship Gatherings, please contact Pastor Adam.
MEN’S DISCIPLESHIP/COMMUNITY GROUPS ARE LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS
Are you looking to join in and connect? We have two different groups meeting, Monday evenings or Wednesday nights. Or maybe you are being called to start a new group? Please contact the church office or see Lew Lenti or Steve Sacksteder.
