Join us this Sunday as we begin our new series, The Big Ten
The Ten Commandments have recently been thrust back into the cultural spotlight. Recent decisions that force them to be displayed publicly have forced both the religious and nonreligious to revisit conversations about the separation of church and state and whether these famous moral declarations are meant to be lived or used as political props.
Join us as we explore The Decalogue and consider its implications for our lives and our world today.
The Whole Law
Exodus 19:1-8; 20:1-2
On the third new moon after the Israelites had gone out of the land of Egypt, on that very day, they came into the wilderness of Sinai. 2 They journeyed from Rephidim, entered the wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness; Israel camped there in front of the mountain. 3 Then Moses went up to God; the Lord called to him from the mountain, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the Israelites: 4 ‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. 5 Now, therefore, if you obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession out of all the peoples. Indeed, the whole earth is mine, 6 but you shall be for me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you shall speak to the Israelites.” 7 So Moses went, summoned the elders of the people, and set before them all these words that the Lord had commanded him. 8 The people all answered as one, “Everything that the Lord has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to the Lord.
Then God spoke all these words,
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery;

August Outreach
Our Outreach support for August will go to Habitat for Humanity.
Habitat for Humanity of Johnson County helps those in need of a home through monetary and time donations as well as sweat equity from the future home owner. Tapestry will be a partner in the 2024 build during September. Being a partner means Tapestry agrees to pay $6,000 toward the build and supply volunteers for 1 day. Tapestry has been assigned Saturday, 9/21/24, as our volunteer day. Stay tuned for more information.
We have a goal of raising $2,000 to help with this September build through August Outreach donations. Rather than a donation of products during August, if you are able, we are asking that you either use the drop down menu online to donate and choose Habitat for Humanity, or place a donation in either offering box in the sanctuary or Fellowship Hall with Habitat for Humanity designated as the recipient.
Please see the attached for more information the family selected for the 25th build. For additional information or questions, please contact Cort Davisson.
Thank you for supporting the Habitat for Humanity ministry!

Book Study
Six-Week Book Study on Struggling with God: Mental Health and Christian Spirituality begins Monday, August 12th/Tuesday, August 13th
“When it feels as if our struggles are overwhelming—and our capacity for faith, hope and love is diminished—how is it possible to maintain, never mind nourish, our relationship with God?” Together, we can learn how to dispel common myths about mental illness and explore the impact mental health disorders can have on individual Christians, the Church and society. It's a great book study to invite a friend to attend with you.
Two study times are available:
Monday evenings at 6:30 pm in the Youth Room
Tuesday mornings at 10:00 am in Rm. 3.
Books are $10.
Please sign up in the entryway or with Pastor Wendy at pastorwendy@risenlordlc.org.
